This figure was also down by 59% from September 2022.

Similarly, the number of new travel jobs available dropped to its lowest point in five months.

It represents a 45% fall from August and down by 53% from 2022.

“Salaries are up by around 13% so far this year and it’s vitally important that we promote the perks of working in travel.”
