Glossary:Holiday trip length

From Statistics Explained

The length of holiday or tourism trips (involving at least one overnight stay) falls into two categories:

• long holiday trips are trips with at least four overnight stays;
• short holiday trips are trips with one to three overnight stays.

The average length of stay for a number of holiday trips is calculated by dividing the total number of nights spent by the total number of tourism trips.
