That is really annoying – It’s not so bad if you visit a high st WH Smith but still have the choice of other bookshops on the high St, but as WH Smiths have a virtual monopoly at the UK airports, that’s abuse of their position. Not that I don’t think DK & Rough Guides don’t have good guides, but I think at the airport of all places, one would hope to have a bigger selection, not a smaller one.

This is very sneaky, and almost a brilliant idea at the same time to squeeze out profit.

Will there be any originality left in the UK? I hate the clone High Streets. You could be anywhere. This is very sneaky on WH Smith/DK/Rough Guide’s part because they have a captive audience.
