It’s a terrible bug, the travel bag: it is highly contagious and the only way anyone can cure it is to find the cheapest flights out of the country as quickly as possible.
No time can be wasted on idle chit chat with a boring old travel agent, who’d probably spend three quarters of your precious lunch break talking about his or her grandchildren and what they might have for dinner when they get home.
No, whether you are looking for flights to London or other low cost flights further afield, sometimes all of us just have to get away.
Thank heavens for the internet! You don’t have to talk to anyone when booking a flight these days. Just a simple click of a button and you can book your cheap flight and low cost budget hotel: all you need to do is remember to pack your passport, get up on time to check-in for the flight-on time!
Click click click and you’ve got yourself the deal of the century. When booked online you can proudly pat yourself on the back that you’ve found the best deals.
And while waiting for the printer to print your booking confirmation you can only hope that when you do get away you will receive plenty of sunshine, warm weather and fun. Oh, and a great tan, too, perfect for showing off when you are back in the office and day dreaming about your next big get away.
Struck for ideas on what to do when travelling? You could learn to Ski in the Alps
Offices across the country are decimated each ski season when ski fanatics flee to the mountains for a week or two on the piste. They typically return tanned, fit and ever-so-slightly smug after having spent time improving their ski or snowboarding skills. You can get the smug feeling, too, by learning to ski or snowboard. There are numerous ski schools available at all major resorts.
If that doesn’t appeal then you could try your hand at painting. You could take up painting holidays in France, Spain and Italy.
