Impossible Dream Holiday?

Brits dreaming of their number one holiday spot have named Australia as the top place they’d like to visit but most don’t think they ever will.



The research of 2000 Brits conducted by my Travel Cash PrepaidMasterCard®, has revealed that a staggering 90 per cent of Brits don’t think they’ll ever make their dream holiday a reality.

Three quarters of those surveyed revealed that their dream destination was just too expensive to afford, while a further 18 per cent admitted that they couldn’t get enough time off work to go.

Dreaming of travelling far and wide, Brits also set their hearts on New Zealand (47%), Canada (42%) and The Maldives (31%) as other top destinations.

Holiday envy was also revealed as a top trend, as one in two Brits admitted to feeling jealous of friends and family visiting their dream destination instead of them.

One third admitted to coming close to booking their dream destination, while over a quarter revealed that this had happened a number of times.

In stark contrast, Brits also revealed that they would sacrifice their fantasy to enjoy a holiday closer to home with family and friends creating treasured memories (62%).

The top 10 destinations were:

Australia

New Zealand

Canada

The Maldives

China

USA

Mauritius

Iceland

Brazil

Peru


Where is your dream destination? Have you been and how was the wheelchair access?
