Supplementary notes

¹Due to the impact of the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, 2020 data is missing, and 2021 figures only refer to the period from April to December. In that last year, the source changed the survey method from face-to-face interviews to online surveys. Therefore, the comparability of 2021 data with figures published up to 2019 is limited.

²The survey, carried out weekly, asks respondents about overnight trips taken in Great Britain during the previous four weeks. While the annual target sample is 60,000, the number of respondents from April to December 2021 was 47,008. However, the sample size used for trip estimation was lower than the number of interviews, as not every respondent had made an eligible overnight trip.

Data prior to 2021 was retrieved from previous editions of the survey.
