I agree with the comment re school holidays. It's as though JY don't want our custom. Maybe they don't? Please don't neglect us!

Hi folks, yes I am being very controlled regarding these new tours! The old bug bear over school holiday departures rears its head every year - and the reality is (as given by JY in response) that these times are peak season so that if they were to offer departures during school hols the prices would be substantially higher - and when they have done this previously the uptake has NOT been there, so it is not feasible for them to offer more than a few departures during this time. Hope this answers your queries!

Cheers,

Bob

I don't want to get into one of those dreaded online spats, but I have been on 8 JY holidays during the school summer break and each has been full, with a substantial proportion of school workers on each trip. In my experience the uptake HAS been there!

I'm very unlikely to go with JY next Summer and so will take my business elsewhere, even though this is easily my favourite holiday company.

Hi Gwyn, I have no interest in a spat either, life's too short! As a regular reader and poster on the forum I have seen this point raised many times over the last five years and each time the response from JY has been what I stated in my response yesterday. I hope you find a great holiday to go on.

Best wishes,

Bob

Well unless I am going mad I just put in July - August into the search engine and 27 holidays appeared I clicked on about 5 which were all going in August, which is when I believe the main school holidays are, and the range was from Paris to artic summer, so let's hope one of these tours fits the bill.

I agree with Bob with his explanation, that is what JY usually reply, they might be able to confirm any newer information, this subject, and regional departures and age range must be the top 3 questions..

Good luck

Hi all, I see there are actually a lot of new tours on the website now! However apart from Colombia and the revamped Kenya tour they are almost all sun/beach breaks with a couple of excursions thrown in. As someone who fries in the sun, I'm afraid they are not for me. I put up with the sun on touring holidays but I want to see all the sights, not laze around on a beach!! I do hope they prove a success for JY though.

Cheers,

Bob

No sign of a brochure on my doormat. Are you sure the glitch on my account got fixed, Monty? Has it gone to the wrong address or something?

Hi Toni,

I can see on your customer record that you have been "opted in" to mailings. I'll follow up with the data team and make sure a brochure (and other mailings) is on it's way to you.

Kindest regards,

Julia

Thanks Julia. I'll wait a few more days before I get too despondent, then.

Happy New Year to you and all the team.

Hi Julia,

Firstly, Happy New Year to you and the team.

As I am trying to do my bit to save the world, I downloaded the new brochure yesterday and I wanted to say how fantastic it looks. The new holidays all look amazing and so do the older ones...even the holidays I've already been on are tempting me,,,, Now I am currently debating with myself on what holiday to do for my main break this year with so much choice its a difficult decision.

Thanks to you and the team for all the hard work.

Kind Regards

Kerry
