Menorca or Majorca.It is that time of the year again.The brochures are piling up in travel agents while newspapers and magazines bulge with advice about where to go.But the traditional packaged holiday,a British innovation that provided many timid natives with their first experience of warm sand,is not what it was.Indeed,the industry is anxiously awaiting a High Court ruling to find out exactly what it now is.
Two things have changed the way Britons research and book their holidays:low-cost airlines and the internet.Instead of buying a ready made package consisting of a flight,hotel,car hire and assorted entertainment from a tour operator’s brochure,it is now easy to put together a trip using an online travel agent like Expedia or Travelocity,which last July bought Lastminute.com for ￡577m （＄1 billion）,or from the proliferating websites of airlines,hotels and car-rental firms.
This has led some to sound the death knell for high street travel agents and tour operators.There have been upheavals and closures,but the traditional firms are starting to fight back,in part by moving more of their business online.First Choice Holidays,for instance,saw its pre tax profit rise by 16% to ￡114m （ ＄196m） in the year to the end of October.Although the overall number of holidays booked has fallen,the company is concentrating on more valuable long-haul and adventure trips.First Choice now sells more than half its trips directly,either via the internet,over the telephone or from its own travel shops.It wants that to reach 75% within a few years.
Other tour operators are showing similar hustle.MyTravel managed to cut its loss by almost half in 2005.Thomas Cook and Thomson Holidays,now both German owned,are also bullish about the coming holiday season.Highstreet travel agents are having a tougher time,though,not least because many leading tour operations have cut the commissions they pay.
Some high-street travel agents are also learning to live with the internet,helping people book complicated trips that they have researched online,providing advice and tacking on other services:This is seen as a growth area.But if an agent puts together separate flights and hotel accommodation,is that a package,too
The Civil Aviation Authority （CAA） says it is and the agent should hold an Air Travel Organisers- Licence,which provides financial guarantees to repatriate people and provide refunds.The scheme dates from the early 1970s,when some large British travel firms went bust,stranding customers on the Costas.Although such failures are less common these days,the CAA had to help out some 30,000 people last year.The Association of British Travel Agents went to the High Court in November to argue such bookings are not traditional packages and so do not require agents to acquire the costly licences.While the court decides,millions of Britons will happily click away buying online holidays,unaware of the difference.

去梅诺卡岛或马略卡岛.这是年内的又一次安排.当报纸和杂志推涌出各种去哪里旅行的建议时,这类的手册也在旅行社里渐堆成山.但是传统的背包度假,这项由英国人首创的为许多胆小的当地人提供温沙初体验的旅行方式,已不再是它原来的模样.事实上,该行业正焦急地等待着一个高级法院的判决,来搞清楚它现在究竟为何物.（待续）
有两件事改变了英国人研究和预订他们假期的方式:低成本航空公司和互联网.不必从旅行社小册子处买一个现成的包括航班、酒店、租车和各种娱乐在内的打包旅行,现在利用一家在线旅行社很容易就可以组合一次旅行,如Expedis或Travalocity,后者在去年7月以5.77亿欧元(10亿美元)买下了Lastminute公司,或从增殖网站的航空公司、酒店和租车公司都可以达到这个目的.（待续）

再答： 这已经让一些人为大街旅行社和旅游经营者们高唱挽歌。业内已经出现动荡和关张的局面,但传统的公司也正着手反击,有一部分通过将更多的业务转向网络。例如First Choice Holiday,在今年10月底,其税前利润上升了16%,达1.14亿欧元(1.96亿美元)。尽管整体的度假预订量已经下跌,但该公司正专注于更有价值的长途旅行和冒险。First Choice现在直接通过互联网、电话或从自己的旅游商店销售了超过一半的旅行订单,并想要在几年之内达到75%。（待续）
