Q We have recently left the corporate world to run a villa on the Greek island of Kefalonia. It’s been a four-year project to build – blood, sweat and tears along the way – but we are finally there.

I was wondering if you had any Insight as to why the prices of flights to Kefalonia from the UK have increased so dramatically this year. I understand that the collapse of Thomas Cook may have had an impact, but the prices to other islands do not seem to have increased by the same rate. This is obviously concerning as people are choosing not to come to Kefalonia.
