Posted 01 September 2017:

Weak GBP is good for UK exporters - including tourism businesses - but not so good for Brits wanting to holiday abroad.

UK tourism businesses benefit from both international visitors and staycationing Brits.

The GBP is likely to fluctuate and trend toward the weak side at least until Brexit has been resolved - and barring some cataclysmic change of plans, that will happen no sooner than March 2019.

So for the near future, Britain will be on sale in the USA as well as in the Eurozone and Asia.
