10 Clitheroe Advertiser and Times, May 3rd, 1984


Clitheroe 22324 (Editorial), 22323 (Advertising). Burnley 22331 (Classified) FOR AIRTOURS GOOD NEWS


Over 55,000 people have already boqked on our 1984 Summer Programme. This programme is, now, very


nearly fully booked.


The management of Airtours thought how well they had done and how pleased their directors were going to be.


Unfortunately for the management, the managing direc­ tor consulted his figures for last year, and found that over 25,000 people decided to book a last minute holiday with Airtours in 1983.


This meant that because we were nearly full these 25,000 people would not be able to take an Airtours


holiday in 1984.


So instead of having a relatively easy time the manage­ ment of Airtours were sent out to find more hotels and apartments and more aircraft. Now they have returned and they have bought very wisely and our managing


. director has dug deep into his pockets and produced another full colour brochure with over 20,000 more summer holidays at incredible prices.


Airtours Extra Holidays — at


bargain prices for those who usually leave it until the last minute to book.


Some examples of the last minute prices which also let you choose now where you can go this summer.
