Metro has unveiled The Getaway Expert, a week-long daily newsletter series aimed at helping readers become more confident travellers in 2026.

The six-step guide promises to match subscribers with their ideal destinations —whether that means lounging with a cocktail or hiking at sunrise.

Each edition is packed with money-saving hacks, insider tips, and stories from 60 countries, offering practical advice for making better holiday choices. The newsletter also ties in with Metro's Travel page, which now attracts over 1.4 million monthly views — a 33 per cent year-on-year increase.

Metro's head of newsletters, Sophie Laughton, says the series is designed to reach readers when they’re planning their next trip, showcasing Metro’s travel expertise and building deeper connections with engaged audiences.
