An accommodation company's pitching for raising the working holiday visa age from 30 to 50.

Lylo managing director Tim Alpe wants restrictions eased to attract more people, pointing to the struggle still faced by tourism. 

He says lifting the age would provide flexibility for older people keen to try something new.

Alpe says it'd have no downside. 

"I just think that by limiting it to 30 or 35, we aren't that competitive with Australia and Canada - who are killing it."
