Single-parent families will no longer have to pay more than their fair share when going on holiday, thanks to new package deals that a tour operator claims puts an end to “pricing discrimination”.
In what is being described as an industry first, Virgin Holidays has secured deals with some of its favourite all-inclusive resorts in the Caribbean at rates that don’t punish lone parents.
Due to the way in which resorts normally base prices on two adults sharing one room, a child who share a room with a parent ends up paying adult prices for the holiday, as child occupancy isn’t taken into account.
