Canary Islands Holidays that will leave you Singing like a Bird

If you want a sun break than look no further than the Canary Islands. In the summer the daily highs are about 27C and nightly lows of 18C from June to September. In the winter the daily highs are about 16C and nightly lows rarely much below 8C. Just a hop, skip and a jump from Europe, the Canaries are an ideal spot to get away from it all and to brown up your skin. Opodo has some almost unreal deals on flights from England to the Canary Islands …

Spend Christmas and New Years on the QE2

You only live once. That is both a scientific fact and a long standing cliché. Because you only get one shot at this thing called life, you’re supposed to take advantage of it. Instead of sitting at home watching the telly, you’re supposed to be out running naked in the streets. Instead of working 9-to-5, you’re supposed to be dancing until the sun rises. Instead of having a traditional, boring Christmas vacation, you’re supposed to be taking a cruise aboard the one and only Queen Elizabeth 2.

Cyprus on my mind and in your Holiday Plans

Have you ever had a word or a phrase that you didn’t know before but once you learn it you see it everywhere? That has been happening with me and Cyprus lately. Sure, I knew that it was an island located in the Mediterranean, but other than that my knowledge of Cyprus was minimal.

Big Savings on Business Class Tickets from London to New York

Whenever I take a transatlantic flight, I inevitably have a drooling grandmother on one side of me and a weary businessperson on the other. While getting drooled on by anyone other than your dog is not my idea of the ideal way of spending 7 hours, I actually feel more compassion for the business traveler who has to spend a good portion of his or her life on an airplane. It is especially tough when their company doesn’t spring for tickets in business class.

The good news for those of you …
