Taking the Trouble Out of Travel

The thought of taking a holiday conjures up thoughts of relaxation and fun but if you’ve ever been in charge of the ‘behind the scenes’ organisation you’ll know the reality can sometimes be different. The run-up to jetting off can actually be quite challenging and if things don’t go as smoothly as planned your trip away could leave you feeling like you need another holiday to recover.

City hopping is a great way to see several cities and countries in a short space of time but sometimes your precious travel time can be wasted simply by getting from the city to the airport and vice versa, especially if the two aren’t situated close together.

Business trips can be equally laden with obstacles - what terminal do you depart from? Is there a car park close-by? Organising the finer details can be time consuming and you don’t want to arrive at important meetings or conferences, feeling like you’ve already done a day’s work!

Unexpected glitches can also wreak havoc with your travel plans, whether business or pleasure, and delayed or cancelled flights mean you may need to stopover in a hotel close to the airport.

The volume of hotels and packages on offer means you have many different options to choose from when travelling, even if your journey changes unexpectedly. Some hotels offer ‘stay and fly’ packages which do precisely what their name suggests and provide overnight accommodation in close proximity to the airport so you can literally stay overnight and fly the next day.

One of the main advantages in staying close to the airport is cutting down on travel time. With regular transfers from the hotel, you can wake up, have breakfast and spend only a few minutes travelling to your designated terminal. This also bypasses the need to ask friends or family to take you to the airport, which can be especially tricky if your flight departs in the early hours of the morning. Each stay and fly hotel offers different amenities so check your local site before arrival to ensure you make the most of your trip from the very beginning.

Different stay and fly packages are available for varying travel needs. For example, if you have a car you can choose a package that includes parking options. There are also options for those who don’t want to bring their car to the airport so there’s always something to suit everyone and all packages are practical and cost-effective.

Operating at several locations within the UK it’s worth investigating Stay and Fly Hotels to see if you can make your travel more straightforward and ensure every minute from take-off to touch-down is as hassle free as possible.
