Caitríona Redmond: What to consider when booking a summer holiday this year

Should you book a summer holiday now if you haven’t already? My advice is yes, but to be prepared to be flexible with your travel arrangements

Where flights have been rescheduled to within 24 hours of the original departure time, you may not be able to make a claim on your travel insurance.

Have you heard of the ‘airport dad’? It’s sometimes used to describe an individual who becomes hyper-organised and slightly bossy as soon as they get to the airport. Maybe I’m the quintessential ‘airport mam’!

I’m the one who organises the household travel — a hangover from my days working as a personal assistant, and I like to think I’m pretty good at it.
