This week features an accommodation supplier that I had completely forgotten about. Which is surprising as they have a million stays each year, so it is quite large.

My guest is Caroline White, the CEO of YHA (England and Wales) . Caroline talks us through the history of youth hostels in general and about those in England and Wales in particular.

Find out what big decision had to be made about the guests' comfort and why you should consider staying in a hostel instead of using one of the chain hotels dotted throughout the UK.

Also travel news covers a story that could be quite handy for me in the run up to Christmas as well as other air passengers who suffered with delayed flights.

That's all on the John Guinn Travel Show, where I check it out before you check in.
