The line graph illustrates the popularity of three diverse holidays (skiing, city breaks and beach holidays) between 1990 and 2020. Overall, it is clear that while city breaks showed an overall upward trend, beach holidays fluctuated until 2015, and decreased sharply in the final year. By contrast, skiing holidays increased steadily by 2010, and showed downward trend.
To begin with, city breaks were the smallest amount among the three holidays, accounting for 2 millions. By 1995, the figure increased sharply to around 3 million. The numbers fluctuated for many years, before rising dramatically to just under 5 million, and this was the highest number of travellers among three holidays.
By contrast, beach and skiing holidays underwent opposite trends. Beach holidays stood at around 4.5 million travellers in the first given year. Then, the figure increased slightly, before fluctuating by 2015. The number of travellers decreased sharply to about 3 million. Skiing holidays showed the following trend. The figure stood at around 2.4 million, then increased slightly by 2000, and experienced fluctuation. Skiing holidays’ figure decreased dramatically to around 1 million in the final decade.
