According to the Eastern Daily Press (EDP) the East of England tourism sector on track for summer recovery but challenges remain...
Tourism was one of the hardest hit sectors in the East of England during the pandemic, but now that Covid restrictions have been removed there is optimism that the industry is starting to recover.
Last weekend's Easter bank holiday saw many people returning to the region and Peter Waters, chief executive of the tourism website Visit East of England, said that "Easter was good for the sector".
He added: "There were concerns about people going abroad, about the cost of living and issues with fuel but none of that came to fruition. Airport experiences weren’t good and there was lots of traffic on the roads. And the weather was great, so it was the best Easter businesses could have asked for.
"Easter is a barometer for the rest of the year, if it goes badly businesses are playing catch up, so the sector will be confident going forward.
"Accommodation bookings were good for Easter, and hospitality and attractions did well."
