Is This a bargain case for use with easyjet/ryanair?
Just wondered if this is within regulations for hand luggage with all airways?

Travel Insurance - Including Skydive
I'm going to the USA in a few months and am hoping to do a tandem skydiver whilst i'm out there. I was wondering if anyone knows which is the best insurer to go with for this? Many of them dont seem to cover skydiving, the cheapest i've found so far is £75 for STA Travels Premier policy. Thank-you :)

Thomson - worth bargaining with?
We have seen a holiday that we want through Thomson. They offer it at the cheapest price, even if you go through the hotel directly. It is a little bit more than we'd like to pay.
