Holiday airfares soar as inflation pushes travel costs higher
Original: Travel editor Peter Greenberg on holiday airfare soaring due to inflation
Travel editor Peter Greenberg says holiday airfares are climbing sharply, driven by inflation and rising operating costs. Higher prices for fuel, labour and aircraft are being passed on to travellers booking Christmas and end-of-year flights. Greenberg's comments highlight a growing squeeze on consumers, with experts advising travellers to book early, stay flexible on dates and compare airports to avoid the steepest fares.
Why now: Holiday travel bookings are under way and inflation-driven fare increases directly affect people planning trips.
