Not for us  shambolic flights to foreign countries. The latest being 50 flights per day being cancelled and 400,000 people having their holiday plans spoiled because of dreadful company management. 

Shocking customer relations.

Never mind we vanners don't have those problems.

    Not with the planes but can happen with the ferries if you don't stick to the UK 😉.

    But most of us don't just holiday one way 😆. 

    Could prove interesting to the market as a whole.

    No K, all vanning folks have to deal with are the dodgy dealers, those who won't/can't repair anything for months! I suspect quite a few will opt for an overseas break while awaiting repairs!

    I would imagine that of those 400,000 people there will be a large contingent of holidaymakers and their families who will give that particular airline a huge body swerve when next holidaying abroad. 

    Wheras  the savvy vanner will book UK campsites and enjoy what this country has to offer. An added opportunity for UK Campsite owners.

    I hope they all don't switch over to camping in the UK, the campsites are getting too full at peak times already. It's getting bad enough trying to get where we would like sometimes.

    I know it sounds really selfish but I'd rather keep our holiday choice a closely guarded secret. Luckily 'five go motorhoming' on channel 5 has done very little to show the advantages of our hobby for most. If any newbies have watched the series it just shows a few people being cramped in a van in wet, cold, windy weather and driving on roads that wipe out half their van. Little do they know how wonderful it can be 😂😂
