    having caught up with the posts i have to say i agree with disney cd about virgin!

    we had awful meals on both flights one totally cold egg and ham in a bun!! we were totally cramped into our seats and i am almost certain they had reduced the legroom(economy) they were older planes to ones we have been on and the cabin crew were awful coming back although very nice going out.
    i dont think we will be flying again with them if we can help it to be honest although we are coming up with a good price for next year on travel city direct but its virgin so unsure. any tips on good companys would be very much apprecieated although flights are not coming up yet as its over the 355 days to when we want to go.

    English ciggys are expensive. Buy them at Gatwick or even better check your airlines prices and buy them on the plane.
    Marlboro are OK for a change and they are cheapish, look at different garages out there they all advertise them. Last year Marlboro were $31 a cartoon.

    Hi can anyone tell me if this is a good deal please? 2adults 2 children flying 25th May 2010 for 2 wks from Manchester on Virgin with a car for £2349. I've then been offered a 4 bedroom villa for £600. This includes half term, we can fly out anytime from the 22nd to 29th May. Tho I notice Virgin are a bit out of favour at the min. Is there another airline you recommend who are cheaper but still direct flights please?
    Many thanks.

    i think Thomas Cook fly direct from Manchester to Orlando (Sanford).

    You could also try BA to tampa (which is sometimes quite a bit cheaper)
