The real blackmail is in the holiday companies and airlines stiffing people
with exhorbitant fares during school holidays. There's no reason for them to
do it , they just do it because they can. Its naked profiteering.


They price things according to supply and demand. It's difficult to
criticise that in a capitalist economy.


Except they put the prices up in the expectation of demand long before
the season, not actual demand during it.


What?? The demand for holidays occurs when people book them, not when
they take them.
