Thomas Cook Vacations fields complaints from its customers. Some of these complaints only exist because of the geo-illteracy of tourists.
“I think it should be explained in the brochure that the local convenience store does not sell proper biscuits like custard creams or ginger nuts.”
“It’s lazy of the local shopkeepers in Puerto Vallarta to close in the afternoons. I often needed to buy things during ‘siesta’ time — this should be banned.”
“On my holiday to Goa in India , I was disgusted to find that almost every restaurant served curry. I don’t like spicy food.”
“The beach was too sandy. We had to clean everything when we returned to our room.”
“We went on holiday to Spain and had a problem with the taxi drivers as they were all Spanish.”
“It took us nine hours to fly home from Jamaica to England. It took the Americans only three hours to get home. This seems unfair.”
“There were too many Spanish people there. The receptionist spoke Spanish, the food was Spanish. No one told us that there would be so many foreigners.”
“I was bitten by a mosquito. The brochure did not mention mosquitoes.”
