EasyJet offers escaping UK winter for 28-day Egypt holiday

easyJet holidays have announced a 28-day all-inclusive package to a five-star luxury hotel in Egypt, costing £650, according to Hulldailymail.

According to easyJet, more than 50 per cent of the nation is considering escaping the UK this winter to avoid heating bill hikes. Forty per cent have already searched online for cheap foreign winter getaways due to concerns over the cost of living.

easyJet’s new luxury holiday could be a break for those who are in need of a vacation but don't want to splash the cash due to household budgets being tightened. easyJet reports that ONS figures show average British household costs are set to top £2,225 per month.

This includes over £1,000 on accommodation, £175 on gas and electricity, and £368 on food, when split into average costs per person. Personal finance expert and author Lynn Beattie, founder of Mrs Mummypenny, reviewed the cost comparison data.

She said: "The data collected in this study is incredibly insightful. It shows just how much the average household in the UK will spend on the most basic of living expenses.

"While escaping abroad does not make all our financial commitments disappear, it's startling to know that like-for- like, it is cheaper to buy an all-inclusive holiday than stay in the UK this winter. For consumers who could viably sublet/Airbnb their homes and work abroad, the new package deal by easyJet holidays poses a very attractive offer."

easyJet urged UK citizens to go to Egypt saying:” It is more than just saving money, you could also enjoy the warmer weather abroad too. At Egypt’s balmy Makadi Bay, the average temperature sits at 20°C during the winter months, while the UK is seemingly set for some of the chilliest weeks on record.

”Even though there are less than 68 days to go till the end of the year, there is still time to sneak in a holiday that doesn't cost the earth. Sunning yourself on a private beach for a month with free drinks on tap and gourmet food whenever you fancy feels like a fantasy for most, but it doesn’t have to be that way.”

It added:” Hard-working Brits are being offered the chance to swap worries over gas prices and rising food bills, for a life of luxury, on a much more basic budget with easyJet. The budget airline group has announced a 28-day all-inclusive package to a five-star luxury hotel in Egypt – and say it is £227 cheaper than the average UK monthly household bills, according to ONS data.

easyJet report their data shows on average, Brits are forking out £887 on rent, food, gas, electricity, and other outgoings. For just £650, theycould ditch the cost-of-living crisis for a month and live the high life at the five-star Stella Gardens Resort in Egypt instead.

For that, Brits will get a 28-day stay with all-inclusive meals at the world-renowned resort restaurant, plus free snacks whenever they want and bottomless drinks, alcoholic or not. There is a free spa and gym, complimentary Wi-Fi and TV streaming services.

“If lounging on the private beach gets too tiring, you can mix it up. Nip to one of the six swimming pools instead and enjoy a relaxing swim in double-digit temperatures.”
