Ah yes, the good old days when we paid £400 for day returns to London, £600 for Paris and Amsterdam and when we had next to no choice on departure days if you wanted to go somewhere for a holiday. You went away for a week on one allotted day per week. Yeah, them were the day. Must have been nice if you could have afforded that but today's system provide safe travel for all and relatively stable companies to be employed by but also to do business with.
