These days you can fly off somewhere exotic for a comparatively low price... vacations that would have been off limits or maybe once in a lifetime excursions for the middle or working classes are common. It's hard to compete with the exotic charm of the Caribbean or Europe when you're running a boat up Lake Winnipeg.
