Here are the best cities for pollen sufferers

Hellotickets is a leading global platform and passionate provider of travel experiences, tours and activities, helping explorers from 15 countries find their way to more wonder in the world. They compiled a list of the best and worst European travel destinations for hay fever sufferers. Budapest did not perform well on the list.

“In the UK, hay fever affects 49% of the population, particularly in the pollen season from early spring to mid-autumn, making it one of the most common allergies in the country”, Hellotickets wrote.

If you have tree pollen allergies, avoiding travel during the spring months is advised. Instead, organising your holidays from July to January will be your best option. If you are especially sensitive to grass pollen, then early summer is the time to skip. Lastly, if ragweed is your biggest allergy, early autumn will be a no-go, Hellotickets added.
