Bonding in the air leads to happy flying

THE occasional traveller may have missed out on the news but the regulars have put their weight behind the Irish Travel Agents Association demands for the bonding of airlines.

Anyone booking with Irish travel agents or tour operators do so safe in the knowledge that their money/holidays are safe even if the company goes broke.

Not so with the airlines, however, and it was heartening to see ITAA president, Tony Brazil, recently call on Minister for Transport, Seamus Brennan to act quickly to solve the problem.
