Explained in plain English

Will my holiday cost less?

Yes, a stronger pound means your money buys more foreign currency. So, when you exchange sterling for euros or dollars, you'll get more for your buck. This makes holidays abroad, from flights to hotels, potentially cheaper than they were before the pound strengthened.
