Diamonds in the Sky

on BBC Two England

As Civil Aviation celebrates its 60th year, this series of seven programmes examines the impact of air travel on ourselves and the world we live in. Presented by Julian Pettifer
5: Travelling for Fun
Seven out of every ten people who fly are on holiday. Most pleasure-seekers are on package deals chasing the same ' unspoilt ' beaches, beauty spots, and places of interest. What does. air travel mean to them and to the places they visit? What is the social impact of millions of package air tourists descending on countries, large and small, developed and underdeveloped?
Travelling for Fun examines the advantages and disadvantages of mass air-tourism in a variety of spectacular and unusual locations, and questions a wide cross-section of people around the world about that dread subject ' tourist pollution '.
