Hello, me and my partner travel to Fuerteventura about 6 times a year and stay in self catering villas.

Coverwise Insurance : WARNING
I have just noticed that Coverwise are still being ‘promoted’ on the Travel Insurance section on MSE. A word of warning. They may give reasonable quotes and have lovely staff ( especially when taking out a policy ) but they are underwritten by AXA. They will do anything to reject a genuine claim. Have a look at Coverwise…

Dubai short stay
Me and my husband are thinking of a quick trip to Dubai in a few weeks time. We can't take long off work, so would have 3 full days there plus travel time. Looking at hotel sites, and the options are overwhelming! I've been reading up, and it sounds like the Marina area or the nearby JBR beach area might be a good area to…

My girlfriend and I were due to travel back from Milan to Gatwick and the flight was cancelled a few minutes before we were due to board due to diversion of the incoming flight from a lightning storm (therefore crew changeover could not take place).

Free Parking for Gatwick in Horley?
Just curious if anyone has tried parking up for a week in Horley and walked or taken a local connection to the Airport. Seems like a no brainer way to save a lot of money on airport parking, especially as a lone traveller. Obviously with kids and multiple bags in tow it's probably more trouble than its worth. Just a…

What's available on Tui flights?
OK so I suspected that you have to pay for your food on TUI flights and have just realised that they say you should prebook your meal. So that's not happening as there isn't enough time. But do they give you water for free?? I know there is bottled available at a cost. Or should I buy some or fill up before boarding? Also…

Help needed – scam payments to "LOVEHOL-DOM" and nowhere left to turn
Hi all, I’m hoping someone here can offer advice or has been through something similar. Back in March, a relative of mine tried to book flights online through what she believed was Love Holidays. She spoke to someone on the phone, who then moved the conversation to WhatsApp to take payment — something we now know is not…

No compensation for baggage damaged by Wizz Air
I returned from a trip to Budapest to find that my 23kg hard-shell suitcase had been very badly damaged around the wheel area, with a crack running through one entire side. I'd only noticed when I got home so I hadn't had a chance to file at the airport. I immediately raised a case with Wizz Air online and they requested…
