It looks like you have javascript currently switched off. While we're cool with your take on online security, this does put you in an exclusive club of around 2% of internet users who are in this position. The upside is that your high level of paranoia means you're extremely unlikely to have your computer taken over by malware and naughty code. However, this also means you won't be able to use the features of this site, and probably most of the internet. If you'd like to switch on Javascript, we'll be here waiting to say hello!Welcome to FlightlessTravel.com A unique community dedicated to the sharing of flightless travel experiences and adventures.

What is Slow Travel?You will see that we use the term 'slow travel' regularly on our website. But what is slow travel? Well it means different things to different people but for us it's a fairly simple definition. It's about taking your time when travelling through a country so that you can meet local people and watch the landscape change as you move from one region to the next. It's about trying new food and drink and trying to speak the local language, it's about fully immersing yourself in the local culture.Michael Palin's Thoughts on Slow TravelThe closure of major parts of European air space over five days in April 2010, due to the volcanic ash cloud from the Icelandic Eyjafjallajokull volcano, propelled slow travel to the front pages of European newspapers and lead to a number of radio shows on slow travel.On the 23rd April 2010 BBC Radio 4's programme You and Yours dedicated a whole show to the Ash Cloud Travel Chaos . For those Aussies out there we apologise as the show starts with a few moaning poms but it turns more positive from chapter 2 onwards with a poem from Ian McMillan! The show starts to focus more specifically on slow travel in chapter 4 with a few interviews including one from our Co-Founder Tom McMillan. So what about Michael Palin we hear you ask! Well he enters the show to talk about slow travel in Chapter 4, 33 minutes into the programme.
