Following on from a discussion on the Athens Route thread, where I scanned & posted up a couple of pages from some VS publications I have since 96/98 timeframe. I thought it might be a nice idea to scan the entire booklet as it makes interesting reading.

Sort of a step back in time [8D]

From the March 1998 Flying Facts booklet.

Nostalga?

Flying Premium from Gatwick is JUST like the booklet...

What's changed?

(although I realise that in 'real terms' it's probably cheaper)
