Meet the mum jetting off on 48-hour adventures by bagging flights for as little as £16 – making it back in time for her nightshifts. Anne-Marie Moss, 45, has taken eight short trips over the past two years – spending just £994 on all her return flights and accommodation.
The mum-of-three got the bug to travel after finding a cheap steal to take her daughter, Trinity, 20, and her friends, Imogen, 24 and Tianna, 23 to Kraków, Poland, for the Christmas markets in December 2022 on £16 return flights. Realising how easy it was to find quick getaways at bargain prices she set off a month later back to Kraków – this time reuniting with an old school friend of 30 years, Rachel, 44.
She’s since travelled back to the same city, taking new friends along the way – getting stuck in with activities such as kayaking, quad biking and cycling around the national park. Anne-Marie recently spent 48 hours in Palma, Spain, having foot massages and watching a boat race in March 2023 - which cost £110 each - and already has her next trip planned for May. The mum makes sure to rigorously plan the jam-packed holidays – and always ensures she is back in time for her night shift as a receptionist at a mental health hospital.
