TT bookings up by 10% so far says Steam Packet

The Steam Packet's reporting an increase in TT bookings.

The company reckons the numbers already booked for next year are up 10% compared to the same time in 2010.

Chief Executive Mark Woodward believes it's 'indicative' of the growing popularity of the races.

The Steam Packet is trying to boost the number of people visiting just for practice week by offering cheaper deals, which it calls a 'TT taster'.
