certainly boosted available spending power.

On a similar note the increased spending power of the retired. I think SAGA is one name in tourism that captured this market.

Increased holiday entitlement for those working allowed more time to take holidays and the real growth of the short break market.

Europe, roughly doubling between 1954 and 1982: paid holiday increased from 2 weeks to
about 5 weeks in the UK"

This paved the way for many tourist attraction.
