Ban holiday companies raising prices in school holidays.

Closed 1,897 signatures

What the petition asks

Put restrictions on holiday companies so that they are unable to raise prices of holidays so much during school holiday times.
We think the government are rightly trying to reduce the amount of time that children are removed from school for family holidays. However, we believe families have no choice as they simply cannot afford to go in holiday times due to companies raising prices significantly! By companies raising prices, and government raising fines, we think it’s becoming harder for families to afford holidays, which in turn could have a hugely negative impact on the travel industry as a whole.
