Advice on using Telextext Holiday Deals

I think everyone will agree that waiting for Teletext pages to load whilst looking for that bargain Turkish holiday to appear can be time-consuming and very frustrating.
Even modern TV's using Fasttext pages cached in the TV's memory is an improvement but you still have to wait 30 mins or so for the normal 70+ pages to appear, but once loaded, you can then whizz throught them in a few minutes.
I bet there are many people out there that didn't realise you can see the same pages through Teletext's web site. Doing it like this, you can see 8 TV pages on the one screen and you can go through them all in just a few minutes.

Here's how :

1) Go to www.teletextholidays.co.uk
2) click on the holidays tab (between Home and Flights tabs)
3) then click on TV Text Adds on the line below
4) click on Overseas Destination-Turkey
5) click on 'Use the Print Version to view 8 pages at a time'

I still think Teletext holidays is one of the best places to start looking for that Elusive bargain holiday.

Happy Hunting!!
