Budget Travel launches price war in holiday market

Tour operator, Budget Travel, has launched a price war in the Irish holiday market today.

Details of the new prices were unveiled by Budget Travel Managing Director, Eugene Corcoran, and include savings of up to €900 on some packages.

Mr Corcoran, said: "We are committed to a low cost model which will enable us to continually outperform every other tour operator in the Irish market.

"We’ve aggressively attacked our cost base to enable us to launch these low price holidays and we believe that the other major players in the Irish market will be unable to compete with these prices."
