There is something so exciting about travelling to the airport, ready to begin your next adventure.

As someone who loves travelling and tries to get away as much as my annual leave will allow, I've come to find airports the place where I often do my best contemplating and people watching. But even I am all too aware that when you've travelled frequently, the novelty wears off hard and fast.

There are plenty of other reasons why holidaymakers don't wish to fly; for example, the high cost that often comes with flying abroad, the stress of an airport run, plus the impact it has on the environment.

Fortunately, there are other great ways to travel – by boat, rail or car – to places closer to home if that's more your bag.
