A SHARP slowdown in the rising cost of air travel, along with falls in the price of petrol, kitchen goods and a selection of groceries, helped ease the inflation rate.

A SHARP slowdown in the rising cost of air travel, along with falls in the price of petrol, kitchen goods and a selection of groceries, helped ease the inflation rate.

However, some areas saw price rises continue to accelerate, such as the cost of going to the cinema or theatre, visiting a museum, or staying in a hotel.

Air fares had one of the biggest movements in inflation in January.

The cost of air travel had jumped 11.0% year on year in December.

By contrast, prices in January were only 0.6% higher than 12 months earlier, according to Consumer Prices Index data from the Office for National Statistics (ONS).
