On some charter flights all seats will have been pre-booked by the same tour company, therefore the prices of fares for these flights tend to be more costly than from other airports where there is more competition. Sometimes you get the best deal making a reservation directly from the airline, and at other times the lowest prices can be found through an online travel agency.

Carbon Offset Schemes:

Over the past year climate change has hit the headlines in a big way and increasing numbers of tourist are concerned about off-setting their carbon emissions from their return flights and to be more responsible travellers.


The way such schemes work is that you contribute a relatively small sum of money which is invested into schemes uses to for example plant trees or promote greater energy efficiency.


Note:

It has become increasingly difficult to work out which company is actually selling you your trip due to the various horizontal and vertical alliances, takeovers and mergers over the years. Consumer choice has been reduced for traveller's particularly in Europe as independent travel agents have been marginalised.
