Holiday and business trips

The graphs show information about visits from France and North America for holiday and business purposes.

The line graphs illustrate the number of holiday and business trips made from France and North America over a given year. From an overall perspective, it is readily apparent that the figure for holiday visits to the UK from North America witnessed significant fluctuations, contrasting sharply with total visits from France as its figure remained fairly stable. The data for individuals taking business trips from both locations followed similar trends, except for the last few months of the period, with the number of visits from North America being consistently higher than France. 

Looking first at the figure for those travelling to the UK for vacation, there were more trips made from France compared to North America at the beginning of the year, with the former recording 0.9 million vacationers and the latter 0.7 million. Over the next three months, both figures grew to converge at 1.1 million, with visits from North America becoming considerably more frequent, reaching a peak of 3 million by September. The number of holidaymakers from France, however, had only increased gradually to nearly 1.5 million by September, with both regions’ data declining to intersect again at roughly 1.1 million. At the end of the period, trips from North America became less common, ending at 0.7 million, with the number of trips from France displaying a similar pattern, albeit to a minor extent as it finished at 1 million. 

Regarding the number of individuals travelling to the UK for work, both France and North America experienced similar trajectories throughout. The figure for business trips made from North America started at 0.16 million, thereafter grew steadily to 0.3 million in June, before falling to 0.21 million in September and fully recovering to culminate at 0.32 million. On the other hand, the frequency of trips made from France was less notable as it began at 0.5 million, then climbed to 0.2 million in June, prior to a decline to reach 0.1 million in September, and a final rise to end at 0.15 million.
