Long-haul travelers will be more than familiar with the disturbance to their sleep pattern and the insomnia which can be produced by a long trip, in addition to things like changes in mood, irritability, stomach problems and difficulty in dealing with information. However, for very frequent fliers these usually transient symptoms become a part of daily life and are habitually joined by menstrual cycle problems for women and even by short-term psychiatric difficulties for a number of people.

The chief factors which influence the degree of jet lag which you experience, apart from how frequently you travel, are the distances involved, the direction of travel and your age.

If you regularly travel across just one or two world time zones then any affects will probably be very mild. However, as soon as you start to cross more than three world time zones, and particularly when you get up to frequently traveling over six or more time zones, symptoms will start to increase markedly.

The symptoms of jet lag are also more marked when you travel east and tend to affect you less when flying west. For example, if you fly from London to Singapore on vacation you will experience greater jet lag on arrival in Singapore at the beginning of your holiday than you will in London when you return.

In general when traveling east you can expect jet lag to last for a few days and a good guide is approximately two thirds of the number of time zones crossed. For example, if you cross six time zones you can expect jet lag to affect you for about four days. When traveling west jet lag could be expected to last about half of this time.

Another important factor when it comes to jet lag is age and, as you get older, you will find that you are increasingly affected by jet lag.

A true jet lag cure does not exist although there is a great deal that you can do to help to reduce the symptoms of jet lag.

Malta has often been overlooked by holidaymakers and second home owners in favour of other Mediterranean islands such as Mallorca, Cyprus and Lanzarote, and hotels and estate agents alike on the island are hoping that the three days of publicity will boost visitor numbers for 2006.

With good all year round weather and an English speaking population visitor numbers from the UK, which make up about half of the island’s tourist numbers, have been surprisingly flat in recent years, and with cheaper holidays available in the new destinations from Eastern Europe such as Bulgaria set to capture more of the UK holiday and property market Malta could see tourist numbers remain level or even fall in future years.

Malta Holidays

Malta missed it’s own target of a modest increase in tourists this summer, and there are worries on the island that the opportunity to increase awareness among potential visitors will be missed.

Michael Johnson of Tribune Properties who specialise in properties for sale in Malta comments:

‘Malta is ideally situated in the Mediterranean to attract tourists from all over Europe and further afield but for a lot of people I speak to in other countries it isn’t an obvious destination of choice.

The island has a strong domestic property market and doesn’t rely too heavily on overseas property buyers like some of the Mediterranean islands do, but at the same time those that do buy here play a good role in the economy overall.

The timing of the Commonwealth meeting is good as it’s just before the New Year when a lot of people decide where they will be going for their summer holidays, and next summer’s tourist could be next winter’s property buyer. But they’re only going to do that if they visit the island first, and I’m hoping that Malta will see an increase in tourists in 2006 – it really depends on whether the island takes this chance to market itself in the months ahead on the back of the free publicity the Commonwealth will bring..’

The Commonwealth Heads of Government Meeting takes place very two years, and has its roots in the British Empire, with 53 members who were former British colonies belonging to the organisation.

Queen Elizabeth II is the head of the Commonwealth, and will be visiting with Prince Philip for a two day trip to Malta to open the meeting on November 25 in Valletta, the island’s capital. It will be the royal couple’s first visit to Malta since 1992, and welcoming crowds are expected in similar numbers to their previous four visits.

In addition to the Queen and Prince Philip, among the attendees will be the United Kingdom’s Prime Minister Tony Blair, and the Prime Ministers of Canada, New Zealand, India, South Africa, Singapore and Australia.

‘Around half of Malta’s tourists are from the UK’ adds Michael Johnson, ‘and it’s a similar figure for non islanders buying property here. As well as increasing holidaymaker numbers from the traditional UK market we should be trying to appeal to people in Canada, Australia, South Africa and New Zealand and other countries who take a holiday in Europe to consider visiting Malta for a few days to sample the fine hotels, hospitality, history and culture that the island is so rich in. But it remains to be seen whether the tourist board is capable of translating good free publicity into visitors for the island.’
