With the summer holidays approaching, a new poll has found that 44 per cent of travellers believe that it is unfair that prices increase dramatically during the school holidays.
These respondents also stated that they "would not hesitate" to book a trip during the school year, potentially allowing them to take advantage of the cheap flights to Egypt and other foreign destinations.
Researchers for HolidayExtras.com noted that just 28 per cent of parents said that they would never take their children out of school during term time.

Cheap holidays to Thailand are among the best value for tourists this winter, a travel journalist at the Daily Mail has found.
Fred Mawer spoke to a number of experts in the industry who all agreed that, for a long-haul winter trip, Thailand is "a very good bet for bargains".
In addition to reduced room rates, the cost of living in the Asian country is incredibly low. Thailand was found to be the cheapest of the 16 long-haul destinations in terms of living costs in a recent survey by the Post Office.
Other destinations recommended by Mr Mawer as offering value for money include Dubai and Sri Lanka.
