Holiday Destinations by Flight Duration

If like me you're one of those people who love going on holidays, but cannot abide the whole flying experience, then this feature will be your new best friend. 
Location, hotel, weather, nightlife – these are all major factors that we consider when planning a holiday. Although often overlooked, your flights play a hugely important role in your whole holiday experience as well. A bad flight or a flight that’s too long can be the difference between a fantastic holiday and an ok holiday.
