How they could practically integrate this into existing web platform would be challenging. Based on current site set-up, customers would be clicking through a lifet-time of pages to get to the 365 day point!Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12692181621395203852noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29875741.post-3586107883916118862009-07-12T19:01:41.719+10:002009-07-12T19:01:41.719+10:00@Steve - thanks for another great comment.

I would leave that for the Lastminute and TVL brands.<br /><br />@Ronaldo - thanks....I think....not sure if you are being nice or just trying to sneak in a link.

(Al Ries, Orgin of Brands etc, would back me up) (dont tell me they'll add cars next :-)<br /><br />maybe a different brand like wotflights?
