We have booked Fuertuventura for 150 quid!

Options
We booked yesterday Ryan Air from Luton on Feb 4th for a week for 70 pound each including taxes, charges, and 1 piece of hold luggage (between 2). We are looking at booking Caleta de Fuste and have found some hotel onlys for around 60 pound each. (OK basic but this is a real budget holiday! but with good trip advisor reviews and near the beach and central)

With transfers of about 10 euro to the resort, we feel this is a brilliant bargain!

    If the hotel is central you could save even more by getting the public bus between the airport and Caleta de Fuste.

    You can share a case as long as it is within the weight allowance for one case.
    Gone ... or have I?
  • Hi there. I'm jealous.:p I love Fuertaventura, and we are hoping to go back in 2012.
    We stayed in caleta de fuste, in the Costa caleta Hotel. Really nice, and would stay there again.:)
    Have you booked your hotel yet?

    are you sure? I booked seperate cases when we went to fuerteventura in nov with ryanair as was sure when i read it that you were not allowed to pool luggage:( had loads of room left in both cases as well so could have shared!!!

    I know you can with easyjet and the allowance is quite adequate seeing as you only pay for one bag!:T

    I think it just means you are not allowed to pool luggage if one of the bags is over the allowance and one is under for example. There is no issue with you sharing a case. What are they going to question whose clothes are whose?!

    Wow, now that is MSE! :T:T:T

    Have you read reviews of the hotel? Worth typing the word Review into a search engine then the name and location of the hotel.

    Spot on - you cannot pool luggage weight allowances, but you can share luggage.
