Prague hits top spot for low cost city breaks as travelscene analyses 12 months of low cost trends

15 months after launching its Travelscene low cost brand, providing fully protected and bonded packages that combine the cheapest available flights and hotels available  on the day of booking, Travelscene reports that Prague has hit the top spot as the most popular city destination, well outperforming traditional city break favourite Paris in the Tlc league table.

Surprisingly, the report, which is based on bookings from 1st July 2003 to 30th June 2004, shows that low cost short breaks are not necessarily bargain basement trips. Demand for higher grade hotels has balanced out the cost saving achieved by booking low cost flights, resulting in an average price per person of around £350pp, much higher than Travelscene expected when it launched the low cost brand – and a clear indication that most people do not want to sacrifice comfort, a central location and good facilities for a few pounds.
