Alice Jong, from TripAdvisor, told reporters: “With so many eager to get away this summer, early planning and booking are vital to secure preferred accommodations, flights and experiences. With many consumers conscious of cost in the current climate, a little flexibility during the planning process can help to drive down the price of their trips. For example, when we look at the top destinations over the next three months, August 28th- September 3rd is the most affordable week to visit London.”
