    To be honest I feel a bit, eugh.

    I got my hopes of going somewhere totally different, Lanzarote was right at the bottom of my list. Can't moan though, at least I'm going somewhere.

    I hope they still reply to my letter though.

    I know how you feel - I had my heart set on Turkey! But now that I've booked a hotel with 4 walls and a roof :rotfl: (a bit more expensive than Turkey hotels would have been) I'm actually really looking forward to going - never been and no idea what to expect but it's a holiday we had no chance of affording otherwise.

    And maybe if they reply to your letter you might get more flights ...............................

    I just want an apology really, what's annoyed me is the fact they don't care how [EMAIL="!!!!"]!!!![/EMAIL] they've been.

    Funnily enough, I'm about to book a holiday for summer anyway, so it's worked out okay.

    I think that's the very least you deserve! I think Jet2 need to apologise to everyone they treated badly in this competition (thousands?) - hope they run it better next year! Enjoy your summer hol - going somewhere nice (if you say Turkey I won't get toooooooooooooo upset :rotfl:)

    We're having a break from Turkey actually :D Been there the last two years! Going to Dominican Republic! Was going to do Greece but with the Euro it's actually going to work out cheaper to go to DR!

    A friend of ours went there a couple of years ago and loved it - think he wishes he was going there this year as he has booked to go to Cyprus but he has just been told it's a fiver a pint so he's not happy - I know what you mean about the euro - can't get anything for our money, can you?

    We were in Tenerife in January, using our free flights we won in the Jet2 competition last year. We only ate out for dinner, cooked for breakfast and lunch. Didn't go shopping or anything like that and managed to spend £600 in a week between two of us.

    It was a toss up between Sharm and Dominican Republic, I can't say no to the price I've found for Dominican though.
