Hello and welcome to Manchester World. My name is Theo Houston Betts and today I'm out in Manchester asking people about holidays.
00:04
And that's because after the Easter holidays have finished, we're now looking ahead to the summer.
00:08
A big period of time where a lot of people will be going off and trying to take advantage of the sun.
00:12
We want to know if they've started booking it already. Do they think it's better to book early or book late? Let's go find out.
00:18
So this year I think we booked four or five months in advance.
00:22
And then maybe later on in the year we'll book a few more spontaneous ones.
00:25
So about one or two weeks, see what happens.
00:27
I've booked something in May, but that's it.
00:30
I'm a bit of a skyscanner bandit. I'll see what's the last minute thing and just end up going random places.
00:35

00:40
I think when we've got a bigger group of people, we'll always book more in advance.
00:43
Then if it's me and my partner, we'll only go in two weeks' time.
00:46
Website called Priceline. If you go on Priceline, Priceline Express Deals, right?
00:50
Remember this. They do a mystery hotel and then you can get an extension on Google Chrome which reveals what the mystery hotel is going to be.
00:57
Super cheap. Saved so much money doing that.
