Where you are booking from

A wellness holiday is bought differently in São Paulo than in Surrey

Almost none of the difference is language. It is the flight, and — most of all — which two weeks you are allowed to take. A British reader's August fortnight is the monsoon in Kerala. A Brazilian reader's January is the dry season. Same house, opposite advice. So we write it out separately for every market we sell to.

7 markets

The UK and Europe

Short-haul to the cure towns, one stop to Asia, and an August problem worth planning around.

2 markets

North America

Japan is the short long-haul. The constraint is leave, not distance.

5 markets

Latin America

The southern-hemisphere calendar is an advantage here, and almost nobody uses it.
