Is there flights with this. I'm confused by this:
The prize: a luxurious three-night city break for two in Athens, as guests of the Hotel Grande Bretagne and Aegean Airlines.
The winners will stay for three nights, on a B&B basis, at the five-star Hotel Grande Bretagne, situated in the city centre and enjoying spectacular views of the Acropolis from its roof garden. The hotel has a rooftop pool and a large spa, as well as several bars and restaurants. For details, call 00 30 210 333 0000 or visit www.luxurycollection.com/grandebretagne .
Return flights will be from Stansted with Aegean Airlines, which flies to Athens twice daily on its new Airbus A320 fleet. It offers business and economy cabins, as well as drinks and a hot meal on board. Prices start at £68 one-way, including all taxes. For further information, visit www.aegeanair.com.Thrifty Till 50 Then Spend Till the End
You can please some of the people some of the time, all of the people some of the time, some of the people all of the time but you can never please all of the people all of the time0 -
I was lucky enough to win a previous instance of this competition and got a luxury break in Istanbul. The flights in my prize were included and I would be 99% certain they are included in this prize too.Many tx to all who post constructively in all the forums!:beer:0
