Holidays in the UK really ARE better!

Victoria Summerley wrote an article in the Independent on August 15th 2007 praising the virtues of UK holidays over cheap packages

She says:
“What the tour operators, the airlines and the airport authorities don't seem to realise is that the experience of going on holiday abroad has become just like the experience of going to work - beset by transport problems, overcrowding, and that sensation that your head is going to explode by the time you reach your destination. For them, the task of processing thousands of passengers is all in a day's work. But for many of those passengers, the chore of passing through an airport is all in a day's holiday. If you're really unlucky, it can involve up to 24 hours or more - precious free time that is being squandered in an environment that could not be more inimical to civilised life if it tried.”

Couldn't agree more!
