The last few months were hard for the travel industry and probably the problems are to come will all these bad trends of high oil prices.
My colleagues at Lessno monitor the prices really carefully and that is why I can show you a few samples of the market situation and how it changes since the begining of the year.
Sure, there are many destinations around the world and it is hard to show all possible combinations in this or the next posts.
First I’ll start with Los Angeles - Sydney. As we see, the year started with high rates but then there were extremely good deals, especially in mid-May.
