Summer and Winter Editions
The Summer and Winter editions of the Overseas Timetable are based on the May-June and November-December editions but with extra pages. The idea of this edition is to make it more widely available through the booktrade, as most bookshops would not sell enough to justify stocking the bimonthly edition. However, it is also available direct from Thomas Cook Publishing and on their website.
This edition is well worth considering as it includes much extra information, in fact all six of the special features which appear through the year. In the regular edition you only get one feature per issue, but in the seasonal edition you get all six. Apart from these extra pages the content is the same as the regular editions. A voucher (valid six months) enables you to buy a later bimonthly edition at a discount in order to obtain the latest available information.
