The three pie charts provide data on where people spent their holidays in three separate years, 1988, 1998, and 2008.
Overall, there was an upward trend in the percentage of people who rented apartment and stayed in hotels during their holidays, while the reverse was true for that of those staying with family and camping. Notable, despite the decreasing popularity, staying with family remained the most popular option for many.
Starting with increasing trends, in 1988, 7% of the holidaymakers rented apartment and this was followed by a small increase to 11% in 1998 before doubling to 22% in the final year. Likewise, starting at 15%, the proportion of people staying in hotels on holidays rose noticeably to 22% in 1998. After this, the figure remained unchanged, finishing the period at this point in 2008.
In contrast, in 1988, half of the holidaymakers chose to spend their holidays with their families. From 1988 to 1998, there was a negligible rise to 54% after which the figure dropped considerably to 44% in 2008. But staying with family managed to maintain its popularity throughout the whole period. Moreover, in 1988, almost a quarter of the holidaymakers opted for camping, a figure that then decreased two-fold in 1998 and ended the period at 12% in the final year.
