Poles choose Greek vacations for 2015

A recent report published by Mondial Assistance reveals this summer’s vacation trends. Almost 16 million Poles are planning vacations this year, 5 million of which plan to travel abroad. 14.5 million say they have no plans to take a vacation, citing financial woes as the main problem working against travel plans. Over a million more Poles are planning vacations compared to last year. Based on the poll conducted, Greece will be the most popular destination for those traveling abroad (16 percent), followed by Croatia (13 percent), Italy and Spain (11 percent) and Turkey (5 percent). Croatia had been the favored destination in 2014, with Greece in second place. Poles expect to spend close to PLN 2,600 per person on vacations abroad, and PLN 1,321 for domestic travel. The report was put together based on data collected by Nielsen Polska on behalf of Mondial Assistance May 5-28,2015 on a sample of 2,000 respondents.
