THE industry is mourning the passing of World Holidays founder Peter Windsor, who died on the evening of 26 Apr.
Windsor started World Holidays with the intention of being a niche player in the travel market.
He concentrated on organising tours such as WW2 Ex-POWs to Kanchanaburi (The River Kwai) and the newly discovered Hellfire Pass through to Burma.
Retiring in 2000 after a career that spanned over 40 years, Windsor was involved in “the development of tourism in its infancy & instrumental in bringing so many destinations within easy reach of the travelling public”.
Windsor is survived by his wife Silvana, their four children Mark, Kim, David and Catherine, and eight grandchildren.
