No holiday for 33%

ONE in three Aussies (33%) aren’t going on a summer holiday over Dec and Jan, according to new research from comparison website, Finder.

The study also indicated that of those staying back, 40% lack the funds for a summer getaway, while 32% have a trip planned for a different time of year.

A further 28% simply don’t want to pay the summer tax for a holiday.

“It’s no secret that prices often skyrocket during the holiday season, but keep an eye out for Jan specials,” suggests Angus Kidman, Travel Expert at Finder.
