Good for an extra stay somewhere nice. Not good if it is at Goose Bay in winter and you do not have any winter kit.
There were some very attractive places to go u/s and requiring spares to be sent out. My favourite was Bermuda (after a US trainer we'd run out of spare wheels. Took three days for spares to be sent out via BA). Staying at the Castle Harbour Hotel was very pleasant!
Agree re. Goose Bay but the nosh was good.
