LONDON, June 29, 2011 -


 

According to Jetabroad more Australians than ever are
using the internet to make travel plans; the company is not
surprised by this trend as the web is the easiest and most
affordable way to find cheap flights.

Jetabroad, a global
online flight specialist and travel agency, is seeing a significant
increase in the number of Australians who use their service to book
flights to exotic destinations around the world. Over the past year
and a half the company has seen many people arrange their first
holidays through the web: Jetabroad says this shows that Aussie
travellers are becoming increasingly web savvy.

Independent research from href="www.phocuswright.com/">PhoCusWright, a market
research company, has demonstrated a similar trend across the
entire industry in Australia. Their study shows that traffic to
travel websites was 30 per cent higher in 2010 than the year
before. The report also predicted that growth would continue over
the coming years as travel takes on a larger role in the nation’s
web based economy.

Darin Walters, MD of Jetabroad, comments: “2010 was a fantastic
year for us at Jetabroad and for the industry as a whole, as many
more people chose to book href="www.jetabroad.com.au/Cheap-Flights/Phuket-HKT">flights
to Thailand, Europe and other great spots through the web. This
growth spanned all demographics and included many who ventured into
the world of online travel for the first time.”

Walters continues: “The increase of traffic online is not
altogether surprising as Australia has a very high internet
population and Aussies are always keen to explore the world. Beyond
that, the internet provides convenience alongside great deals
making it a natural place for travel planning. Indeed, if you want
to arrange a href="www.jetabroad.com.au/Cheap-Flights/New_York-NYC">flight
to New York or London it only makes sense to do so online.”
