Last minute holidays are becoming more popular in today’s society, mainly because it’s relatively easy to book a last minute holiday, in fact you could have a holiday booked within 10 minutes, and the flight leaves tomorrow.

That’s how fast the world we live in today actually is. There are plenty of benefits that come with short notice holidays, and of course there are drawbacks, but we’re going to focus on the positive aspects.

Firstly a last minute holiday can be much more exciting; you have less time to wait, payment is completed quickly, and you can be hours away from your flight. You’re also likely to get a significantly cheaper package, with many hotels adding rooms to short notice websites at cheaper prices, perhaps due to a cancellation or fewer customers than they expected.

The fact is hotels would rather have their rooms full at cheaper prices, than keeping their prices high and not getting the customers, so if you’re looking for a break right now, know that there are plenty of last minute options.
