    I have just been looking at BA sale, for our honeymoon in May 2010 - How does £754 for 2 x Economy Direct sound? Or should I keep looking?

    I would grab that with both hands. When the BA non-stop flight came out they were that price per person for me.

    Well after posting last night that you could only vote once in the poll, I really didn't expect to need to vote again so soon.

    I've just booked this morning to go back 30 April - 14 May!!! Woooo hooo!! My birthday trip.

    When I saw on here that BA had a sale I went to the site and priced it. Got a price of £596 which was more than I got a couple of weeks ago.

    However I got the email from BA and using the link in the email the flights came out at £470 each. They were £379 without the Aberdeen add on.

    Now I want to update the poll with my new trip!!

    Re past few posts............you know what would be useful? A "database" of flight costs either advertised or taken, by carrier by month of the year, so when new deals come up, its a quick check as to "quick book it missus" or "nahhh theyll come down in price".

    It depends on the person I think...we saw 4 evening shows and 1 afternoon show when we took my in-laws for their first trip (8 nights, but 1 was at the GC). I know Luci goes to a lot of shows during her trips.

    In some ways it's nice to have something concrete like a show planned and just work your day around it...other times it's a bit of a hassle if you're rushing back for a show...
    Does remembering a time that a certain degree of personal responsibility was more or less standard means that I am officially old?

    Nope.

    We did Phantom, Copperfield and KA in three nights!!!! Admittedly once we had the tix4tonite VIP queue ticket stubs, it made sense to do it that way. Better than spending two hours in the queue.

    Ive booked Vegas for October. Ive been reading through the other thread slowly and am up to page 100 (trying to read 10 pages each time I log on). Ive booked the Venetian, registered for a players card and ordered a voucher for Casa di amore. Is there anything else I should be doing in advance? Apologies if its on the other thread I really honestly am trying to catch up and read it all but so excited want to know I am doing everything I should be!

    intresting idea .

    maybe a new thread when you simply write
    • Price of Flight
    • Airline
    • Departure Date
    • Deaparture Airport
    • Date you booked the Flight


    pretty easy for me to set up , if people think it would be useful
    Better in my pocket than theirs :rotfl:
