In February, our team noticed a couple of trends surrounding Valentine’s Day.

Travel plans were popular this Valentine’s, with the number of visitors to TUI’s website increasing +135% week-on-week. British Airways (+106%) and easyJet (+65%) also saw increases in the same time frame. But there was an even bigger uptick in the number of people seeking Valentine’s treats a little closer to home. Online traffic to Domino’s increased by +404% compared to the previous week, with JustEat (+94%) and Uber Eats (+76%).
