FACT |
Time squeeze
People are generally working longer hours, with less job security than ever before. This group is taking more short breaks, choosing destinations with a short travel time and is prepared to spend money to avoid inconvenience. They are also looking for destinations where they can get away from it all, with a growing search for an antidote to stress.
