    Get on to a Thomas Cook aircraft, then onto a Thomas Cook bus to your Thomas Cook hotel where Thomas Cook food can be consumed from a Thomas Cook buffet. Don't leave the resort for a week before getting back on the Thomas Cook bus to go home
    Yep, because all package holidays are just like that!

    It's utter *******s, just a lame excuse

    Certainly has been my experience.

    Although I'm not too sure what makes a holiday a package holiday. If I phone a travel agent up and tell them I want a specific resort for 7 days in mid October and I want to fly with a certain airline and they come back with a price for transfers, hotel and flights, have I just purchased a package holiday?

    I feel almost guilty about how hard I stiffed Thomas Cook. No I don't.

    No........ you have done what you would do at home and booked all the individual parts of a holiday. Package holiday is when the company "buys" seats and hotel rooms and sells them on as a package.

    Clearly there are some less desirable packages and destinations and most unfortunately the flights are not separated by hotel rating. I suspect there will be some Ayia Napa types on my flight
