Booking All Inclusive is the Stress Free Way to Save on Holiday

Leading Tour Operator explains why all inclusive packages are becoming more and more popular

2013-03-27

KENT, ENGLAND, March 27, 2013 (Press-News.org) Leading UK tour operator Mercury Direct announce today that more and more holiday makers each year are choosing to go all inclusive while on holiday. With the UK economy stagnating, holiday makers have to work harder and harder to pay for luxury items such as a trip abroad, however savvy travellers have found that by going all inclusive money spent while they are away is significantly reduced.

When planning a holiday most travellers often overlook how much that extras such as meals, drinks and snacks which are not included within their booked board basis, can add on to the price of their holiday. This can present a bit of a shock when it is time to check out from their hotel. By choosing all inclusive that worry is completely removed as meals, selected drinks and snacks during the day are completely covered.

Whilst all inclusive can seem more expensive when initially booking a holiday, when the difference is split day by day the cost is usually surprisingly low and can amount to only GBP10 more per person on top of B&B - far less than you would pay in resort!

Apart from the obvious savings on meals and drinks the benefit of an all inclusive package does not stop there. Many hotels also offer other extras from entertainment for children to watersports, spa treatments and other activities as part of the concept which all add up to the enjoyment of the holiday.

Emma Bugeja, Online Operations Director at Mercury Direct says 'All inclusive bookings now amount to almost 1 in 3 holidays booked with Mercury Direct, clearly showing that people who travel with us are aware of the money that can be saved in resort by booking an all inclusive holiday.'

All inclusive is available on a selection of Mercury Direct's Malta holidays as well as to 17 other destinations across the world including holidays to Mauritius, Cyprus and Sri Lanka.

You don't 'own' your own genes

2013-03-26

NEW YORK (March 25, 2013) -- Humans don't "own" their own genes, the cellular chemicals that define who they are and what diseases they might be at risk for. Through more than 40,000 patents on DNA molecules, companies have essentially claimed the entire human genome for profit, report two researchers who analyzed the patents on human DNA. Their study, published March 25 in the journal Genome Medicine, raises an alarm about the loss of individual "genomic liberty." In their new analysis, the research team examined two types of patented DNA sequences: long and short fragments. ...

Women make better decisions than men

2013-03-26

Hamilton, ON, March 25, 2013 – Women's abilities to make fair decisions when competing interests are at stake make them better corporate leaders, researchers have found. A survey of more than 600 board directors showed that women are more likely to consider the rights of others and to take a cooperative approach to decision-making. This approach translates into better performance for their companies. The study, which was published this week in the International Journal of Business Governance and Ethics, was conducted by Chris Bart, professor of strategic management ...

Gene therapy may aid failing hearts

2013-03-26

In an animal study, researchers at the University of Washington show that it was possible to use gene therapy to boost heart muscle function. The finding suggests that it might be possible to use this approach to treat patients whose hearts have been weakened by heart attacks and other heart conditions. Led by University of Washington (UW) Professor and Vice Chair of Bioengineering Michael Regnier and Dr. Chuck Murry, director of the Center for Cardiovascular Biology and co-director of the Institute for Stem Cell and Regenerative Medicine at UW, the study appears online ...

Auto accidents often occur on low-speed roads, but a high-speed trip encourages reluctant bucklers

2013-03-26

Since most driving is done locally, it is not surprising that most auto accidents occur during routine errands. Yet, occasional seatbelt users are more likely to buckle up for trips on high-speed roads and less likely to use the belts for local driving, according to an analysis of data from 100 instrumented vehicles reported in the January issue of Accident Analysis and Prevention. If drivers and front-seat passengers used seatbelts all the time, deaths from crashes would be reduced by 45 percent, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA). ...

Compounds found that alter cell signaling, could lead to new breast cancer treatments

2013-03-26

JUPITER, FL, March 25, 2013 – Using a broad spectrum of analytical tools, scientists from the Florida campus of The Scripps Research Institute (TSRI) have uncovered a class of novel compounds that can alter cell signaling activity, resulting in a variety of responses including a strong anti-inflammatory effect. These findings could lead to new strategies for treating diseases such as breast cancer. The study, published this week in the journal Nature Chemical Biology, focuses on compounds that interact with the estrogen receptor-α, a therapeutic target in breast ...

The latest genomic studies of wheat sheds new light on crop adaptation and domestication

2013-03-26

March 25, 2013, Shenzhen, China – The advanced online publication version of Nature today presents two manuscripts that provide an unprecedented glimpse into the adaptation and domestication of wheat. These achievements are the results of joint efforts led by the Institute of Genetics and Developmental Biology (IGDB), Chinese Academy of Sciences, Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences (CAAS), and BGI. The two projects sequenced and analyzed two ancestral wheat genomes of Triticum urartu and Aegilops tauschii, respectively, throwing light on the biology of the world's ...

Ganetespib shows potency against ALK-positive lung cancer and overcomes crizotinib resistance

2013-03-26

PHILADELPHIA — A drug that indirectly impairs the function of several cancer-driving proteins, including anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK), may be an effective new treatment for patients with ALK--positive non-small cell lung cancer. The drug, ganetespib, may also be effective for treating patients who have become resistant to the only FDA-approved targeted therapy for this disease, crizotinib, according to data published in Cancer Discovery, a journal of the American Association for Cancer Research. "Lung cancer, a leading cause of death, is no longer thought of as ...

Early-onset baldness in African-American men may be linked to prostate cancer

2013-03-26

PHILADELPHIA — Baldness was associated with an increased risk of prostate cancer among African-American men, and risk for advanced prostate cancer increased with younger age and type of baldness, according to data published in Cancer Epidemiology, Biomarkers & Prevention, a journal of the American Association for Cancer Research. "We focused on African-American men because they are at high risk for developing prostate cancer and are more than twice as likely to die from prostate cancer than other groups in the United States," said Charnita Zeigler-Johnson, Ph.D., research ...

Radiosurgery for treating unruptured intracranial arteriovenous malformations

2013-03-26

Charlottesville, VA (March 26, 2013). Researchers at the University of Virginia (UVA) Health System recommend radiosurgery for treating unruptured arteriovenous malformations (AVMs), because the procedure has a reasonable benefit-to-risk profile. They base this recommendation on an evaluation of clinical and radiographic outcomes in 444 patients treated with radiosurgery for unruptured AVMs at their institution. Detailed findings in this single-institution patient cohort are reported and discussed in "Radiosurgery for patients with unruptured intracranial arteriovenous ...

Study finds strong genetic component to childhood obesity

2013-03-26

Previous research has shown that obesity runs in families, and twin studies suggest that this is largely due to genetic factors, with heritability estimates over 50%. 32 genes have been identified as risk factors for obesity but previous analyses suggest that these genes alone cannot fully explain the high level of heritability in childhood obesity, as together they explain only 2% of individual differences in childhood body weight. This has led to a problem of 'missing heritability'. In this study, researchers used a new method called Genome-wide Complex Trait Analysis ...
