Thats great CMD. Which company have you signed up with for MS? Can refer you to Retail Eyes if you aren't with them, as they have most of the airport jobs. They only usually release one wave of airport jobs a month, and you can only do 3/4 a month although if you call them they'll often give you more. NIM and I loved doing the Dublin run as we'd make about £80 every time we flew through. Don't forget you can get ones in your airport this side too.
Thanks Dinah. It is Retail Eyes that I am with and am going to sign OH up with. Didn't realise there was a limit on the number of airport jobs you could do but even 3/4 would be great as it looks like OH's flight will cost about £30 a week.
It's just typical that I realise all of this when I won't be on as many flights! I used to be back and forth every couple of months!Total (Aug 19):€58,567 Now:€26,947

NIM says TNS also do Glasgow airport and a few other Scottish ones and London, so might be worth looking at them, and Bare International as well. xDebt January 1st 2018 £96,999.81Met NIM 23/06/2008

Yep she is coming up that. I think it might be that too, hopefully she will settle down in a few days.0 -
