TravelSupermarket’s Emma Coulthurst said that prices this low to Europe haven’t been seen in more than 20 years.
She told Sun Online Travel: “These are the sort of prices which you sometimes were lucky enough to get last minute at the start of the season in May in the early 90s – you’d go into a travel agent and ask what they had for later that day or the next day.
“The uncertainty over when we would be able to holiday again has meant that many Brits who would normally book a summer holiday a few months before didn’t.
“It means that tour operators and travel agents have lots of unsold holidays from the UK to the Med.
“It would normally be difficult to find a seven night holiday to the Med in August from under £300pp.
“Now they are starting from less than £200pp for a family. For those looking to get away in September, there are sub £150pp package holiday starting prices.”
