The No.1 Turkey holiday specialist has welcomed the news and witnessed it to be true as its own sales of last minute holidays to Turkey in August have risen in recent weeks.

A Holiday Mate spokesperson said:

‘We anticipated this late summer holiday booking trend would emerge at this time of the year.’

‘With so much going on in the UK it was inevitable that a percentage of customers would book holidays later than usual; so as not to miss out on celebrating key events such as London 2012.’

Pocket friendly priced holidays are also proving to be popular with Brits looking for cheap holidays to Turkey that won’t break the bank.

Holiday Mate added:

‘In the current economy holidaymakers across the globe are being a lot more budget conscious.’

‘Sun seekers want more for less and the beauty of the all inclusive holiday is that it allows individuals to budget as the majority of drinks, food and entertainment are paid for upfront.’

It seems that all areas of the UK travel industry are braced and ready to open the floodgates to holidaymakers looking to escape the unpredictable British climate.

Britain’s largest airport, London Heathrow has estimated that it will wave off a staggering 116,000 departures per day in the weeks following London 2012, compared with 95,000 departures per day on an average week.

One thing is for sure, Holiday Mate will not be left in the starting blocks when it comes to success as customers seeking Turkey holidays are sure to be tempted by their choice of accommodation and last minute flights to Turkey.
