The British pound is currently worth roughly €1.10, 25% less than 3 years ago) but go across the Atlantic, and things are looking a little better. The pound is presently valued at roughly 1.60 against the American dollar – 10% better than this month last year. So it seems like you will get more for your buck if you travel o America this year.

So once you have your flights booked, you should start saving money once you’ve landed on the US shores. Shopping, food and drink should work out to be cheaper than the UK and Europe. Thousands end up buying iPhones, clothes and other items in the States and importing them back to the UK at the end of their holiday.
A popular trip of the UK holidaymaker in America is the roadtrip – and again America makes it nice and cheap (potentially). A litre of unleaded is just 68p currently in America – compared with a ridiculous £1.35 in England. So if you’re thinking of a roadtrip from San Francisco to Los Angeles, and up to Las Vegas, or if you fancy going across the US from Chicago to L.A. via the historic Route 66, you won’t get a nasty shock when you fill up at the pumps.
A trip to America holds many surprises – you don’t want the price to be a nasty one. And remember, if you have a holiday business, you can submit your website to The Travel Directory for cheap.
