    Hello Everyone
    I need some advice please. I won a trip to Paris with Flybe way back in October. A voucher has arrived at last but it seems I have to pay airport taxes and looking on the Flybe site these will come to £254. Has anyone else ever won a mini hol and had to pay taxes like this? I thought that was all the prize was worth!:( Doesn't look like we'll be going!

    Hi all

    It is a blooming miserable day here today wet and grey and cold too.

    Sorry to hear about your back Katie and hope it gets better soon also hope you manage to find a suitable dog, Fudge does sound adorable but King Charles do have lots of problems with thheir ears and bowels it is so sad.

    Hope everyone is having a lucky day today

    Off to comp for a while now.
    If at first you don't succeed try, try, try again.

    Hi Sid. :hello:

    I've never won a holiday, but I thought the taxes would have been included. :(

    Have you checked the original post?

    Always buy package hols but do check flights sometimes and didn't think the taxes were usually as bad as that.
