I know people have asked similar questions in the past - although I can't find the posts - but is there any way to book the KA tickets with a UK credit/debit card and address? I'm sure I remember someone saying last year that you need to phone up?

Many thanks.

Have you tried using your card with these links

We had a blast in Vegas! Starting to feel a bit down now as such cos were back home! Vegas is truly an amazing place, and were both so glad we picked that place to get married!
and cheers all for the nice comments, most appreicated! and ferf, americans dont know what there missing with beans for brekkie! haha! although the bbq beans i had on the evenings were pretty much the best i've ever had!

After Vegas, we flew down to Orlando, then picked up a Mustang and drove straight down to Ft Lauderdale (2 1/2 nights kinda thing down there) (strong coffees were needed!), stayed on the beach which was nice, bit of a comedown though... Did goto the Hard Rock Casino in Ft Lauderdale, but it didnt work for me $300 down so we left, only to find some drunk !!!! had done a hit and run on our mustang! cops are there anyway eating donuts and coffee at 1am so told them the score, 35 mins later, they write it up so we can leave.... not ideally what we wanted on our last night!

Drove back to Orlando, nothing to worry about car wise as i had a case ref, plus us brits get the max insurance anyway! so dropped mustang off, ready to get my next car for the week... booked a Int SUV (Ford Escape), but after having a friendly chat with the Dollar guy (i'm an express member), he let us walk away with the Expedition for free!

Stayed in the Sheraton Four Points Studio City on I-drive for the week which was nice, but 3 solid days of theme parks (express passes too!) really killed us off!, sunbathing to keep the tan up, then mass shopping! I'm sooooooooooooooooo glad customs didnt stop us, i alone had over $850 in stuff for me, alcohol too!

Vegas or Orlando ?? Tough one that as i really like both places, although that was my 4th time to Orlando!

a slightly off-topic question, but thought you guys are friendly and helpful so can be answered here... something which has always confused me...

can i buy duty free (esp. cigarettes, not for me) 'airside' at the London airport, take them to the US, leave them unopened, and brnig them back to the UK? and do I have to declare these flying out/flying back?

Yes you can, depending on what brand you want if it is an international brand than you may find it cheaper at the other end.

Of course there may be some here might question the legality of buying for a third party, I'm not sure?

We have done it. Never had any bother. As far as being allowed to do it, I don't know, it didn't occur to me to be honest.

No problem buying UK brands in the UK and then bringing them back.

You don't need to declare them if you are within the duty free limit of 200 per person.

They must be for personal use or as a gift. You are not allowed to bring them back to sell.
