Travel Counsellors posts record £700 million in new bookings

Travel Counsellors announced record breaking sales figures for 2022 with leisure and corporate bookings outpacing pre-pandemic levels.

To date, Travel Counsellors has amassed £700 million in new bookings this year, over 20% up on full year figures for 2019.

In September alone sales were £75m.

All markets are outperforming full year 2019 figures with corporate travel up by 20% versus pre pandemic sales figures.

For winter 2022/23, UK leisure destinations are proving popular, seeing their biggest booking volume yet, followed by trips to North America, cruise holidays, Spain and the Caribbean.

Steve Byrne, CEO of Travel Counsellors, said: “This is a record-breaking year for our Travel Counsellors, and as a result, we are seeing our largest number of new bookings ever.”

“Despite travel only really came back at the beginning of this year, these figures highlight there is a real appetite for people to travel.”

This year the company has welcomed 140 new Travel Counsellors, with over 1,300 now operating across the UK and a further 400 plus in its overseas operations.

During September 116 Travel Counsellors reported their biggest ever month in terms of bookings with one, making £1.7m in sales. .
