TRAVELOCITY has reported profits of £3.4 million for the
quarter ending September 30, despite a drop in bookings following the US
terrorist attacks.
The company failed to reach its expected revenue of £58.6
million, hitting only £54.1 million.
It also revealed that air ticket sales are now around 80%
pre September 11 levels and around 70% expected October levels.
UK director Jamie Cole was upbeat about the figures: “From a
UK and European perspective, it’s a tough time but we are seeing an uplift in
sales after September 11,” he said.
