The Association of British Travel Agents published a list of most ridiculous complaints received from clients upon their return home from abroad. A few of Apprentice Writer's favorites:
"No one told us there would be fish in the sea. The children were startled."
"On my holiday in Goa, India, I was disgusted to find that almost every restaurant served curry."
"We booked an excursion to the water park, but no one told us we had to bring our swimming costumes."
"It took us nine hours to fly home from Jamaica to England. It only took the Americans three hours to get home."
"I was bitten by a mosquito. No one said they could bite."
"We bought Ray-Ban sunglasses for five Euros from a street trader, only to find out they were fake."
"I compared the size of our one-bedroom apartment to our friends' three-bedroom apartment and ours was signficantly smaller."
"The beach was too sandy."
And finally, AW's favorite British tourist complaint: "Too many foreigners now live abroad."
AW applauds the British Travel Agent Association for providing such an educational report, and eagerly awaits the reports of any other national travel agent association.
