I remember going on three package holidays in the 80's. I think it was easier for my parents to get holiday in that way. But after that I haven't been in a single one. With internet it's easy to book flights and hotels so no need for that. Anyway I have seen companies like tui and jet2 selling packages but is anyone actually buying them?

I also work in travel and generally book a package. A package holiday isn't just AI in Benidorm, its any holiday where the elements are booked together with the same agent / operator under their ATOL number. It gives you much better protection than booking individual elements and despite what people like to think, doesn't always cost more.
Like a PP, I've travelled independently and work in the industry so perfectly capable of DIY and know how to get the best deals- about 80% of the time that's with a package.
