4.0 out of 5 stars Fascinating insight into budget travel, 20 Mar 2006

By	G. Thulbourn (England) - See all my reviews (TOP 1000 REVIEWER) (REAL NAME)

An interesting, and well written, story of low-cost air travel focused mainly on the UK. It covers a brief history of all commercial air travel per se, so gives a good general background.

It is let down by the fact that it is a straight 'facts' book, and takes very much any interviewees statements as fact. It is also non-judgemental and doesn't seem to be concerned by things like the hypocrisy of budget airlines complaining about unfair pricing practice from the traditional airlines whilst selling at below cost price against their own competitors.

In the section looking at the future of low-cost air travel it also brushes over the environmental factor. Can the world afford low-cost air travel?

These points aside, this is a well written factual book which if you're interested by the phenomenon of low cost air travel you'll find an enjoyable read.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wittty, thorough and eye-opening, 23 Mar 2006

By	J. Edwards (Penistone) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Calder delves into the history of 'no frills' airlines with a witty delivery which makes for a great read. By no means is this book like a text book but it teaches the reader a great deal about the industry. Calder appears to have unlimited access to the airline bosses, passengers and politicians and he rewards them with a fair hearing - you won't be disappointed.
