German tourists prove stereotypes true
We’re not the sort to perpetuate stereotypes here at bdaily Towers, but sometimes they can be justified…
According to Reuters, German tourists are now able to reserve their poolside recliners before they have even left home.
The German arm of Thomas Cook, Europe’s second largest travel company, has been deluged with inquiries since announcing that holidaymakers at nine hotels in Turkey, Egypt and the Canary Islands can book recliners in advance for a fee.
Germans are famous around Europe for rising early to reserve recliners near the pool with their towels, and then going back to bed or eating a lengthy breakfast.
Tourists from other countries will be unable to take advantage of the new service, as it is valid only for tourists booking their trips from Germany.
