Exchange rate won't affect our travel plans!

1st May 2009

One way of saving money on holiday is to travel to a country where the pound in your pocket goes further. With the recent drop in the value of the pound against the Euro, this could mean a change to your usual holiday destination. We asked our customers whether the current exchange rate had affected their travel plans.
