2023-12-23 13:30:00

Inflation does not prevent the French from traveling abroad or within the country during this holiday season. Inflation “does not really influence the number of French people who go” on vacation at Christmas, confirms on franceinfo, Valérie Boned, president of Entreprises du Voyage, indicating that “those who go and who still have the means devote a budget “. She will specify that the level of reservations is “fairly stable for France” and increasing for abroad. Around 50% of French vacation spending is spent on the France destination. “The occupancy rate in the mountains is very good with more than 80%, or more than 10% compared to last year,” underlines Valérie Boned.

Many French people also want to go abroad to enjoy sunny days. Spain is their first favorite destination. “The sun not too far away. It’s really Spain, the Canaries, Tenerife which are performing well, which are coming in first position,” specifies the president of Entreprises du Voyage. The French have also set their sights on Morocco. “Morocco has regained its colors following what happened in September and the earthquake”, as well as “Tunisia”, she said. The French are also in love with a more distant destination: Mauritius. It is “a destination that has really been working for a year and which has confirmed its position,” assures Boned. And added: The Dominican Republic “attracts the French, even if it is a little less well served in terms of companies”.
