Top 10 Holiday Nightmares

Posted by Peter Brady on Mon 25th September 2006 at 06:00 AM, Filed in Travel Accessories

We’ve all done it. In a mad panic you’ve forgotten something, or broken something, or just plain ruined your holiday through your own incompetence!

But what are the top ways to trash that dream holiday. Here’s my straw poll results.

1. Realising your passport is out of date when you get to the airport.

2. Having an accident on holiday without medical cover.

3. Realising that the airline have overbooked and you’re going to have to sleep over at the airport.

4. Luggage getting lost in transit.

5. Any form of illness flaring up on holiday - in particular appendicitis or ear infections.

6. Finding out your luxury hotel is a building site.

7. Getting robbed.

8. Food poisoning.

9. Realising at the end of the holiday that your swimsuit goes completely transparent!

10. This is an interesting one - Getting into an argument over beach towels on sun loungers. More common than you might think.
