A Chartered Accountant (UK) with over 40 years of international travel by thumb, boot, bike, hike, lambretta, cars from a Ford Prefect to a 348 Spider, planes from a 1946 Fleet Canuck to The Concorde, trains from the London Underground to The Orient Express, boats from canoes to The QE2 and wanting to do it all again....
Still needing to visit Newfoundland, Copper Canyon, Greece, Easter & Christmas Islands and The Antarctic and a few more Traditional English Pubs.

There are various levels of commissions on travel products and services when purchasing from a travel agent to allow for marketing and distribution costs. Why should travelers who book directly with the travel providers have to incur these costs? There is a new service called TopTravelVouchers from TopTravelSites.com which enables travel providers to encourage and reward 'direct-bookers' without upsetting the normal travel trade supply chain.
