With
the advent of deregulation in the airline business and the growth of many
independent carriers it is now possible to fly to many coastal destinations
around the UK. This is becoming an ever more popular choice as airfares are
reduced but the cost of travel by road and rail just seems to go up each year.
Beat the traffic jams and fly to the coast!
