    11-Max. budget FOR THE WHOLE PARTY!!! - £1500, live in scotland (don't believe they do morocco from scot airports) so flights would be required to get to LGW (or wherever), priced these to be about £200 (easyjet), overnight accomodation may also be required depending on flight times (£26 travelodge), so budget of £1500 is for everything ie internal flights and accomodation.
    Many thanks

    Do Easyjet fly to Morocco?I didnt think they did.

    sorry probably worded it wrong. From what i can see flights to morocco are only out off LGW, MAN and BIR hence since I live in Scotland I would have to get a flight from Scotland to England (LGW etc) to get a flight to morocco, so thats where easyjet would come into it, EDI to LGW (or similar.)
    Massive thanks to all who contribute on the MSE forums, especially on grabbit and competition boards

    Well, I'm now a member of the Virgin Atlantic Flying Club. I'm not quite sure, yet, if it will help me as the flight is with BMI, but hey ho, I'm sure I'll find out soon

    regards

    1000 for the 2 of you? or each

    Sorry - £1000 each - that is the rough price I have been looking at with the odd one around the £900 mark
