16、SSTravel operator Joyflight is different from most of its rivals. UK package holiday companies would love to have plenty of repeat business. Instead, in an effort to attract trade, they are forced to spend enormous sums on marketing - but they are operating in a very competitive market. So, although

Despite greatly increasi
22、ng its turnover in the past four years, the company has a careful attitude to expansion.
