    wow, Budgetflyer, do you regularlydo trips? I have only just started to look at this board although a regular on this forum, I will be looking out for your posts as you certainly know how to pair costs down. It sounds too as though I should get a card that I can load money on to save the credit card fees with the cheap airlines.

    And not just Budgetflyer, I am generally very impressed. My husband has just retired and I now work only half time so I will be looking out for cheap breaks - I dont mind where as long as its interesting and hopefully from Stanstead or Luton!

    Thanks everyone!

    i wish i lived near Stanstead, i'd be off every week. The amount of cheap Ryanair flights from there is fantastic. Working 4 on 4 off givess you plenty of time to get off for a few days and cheap too.

    I would suggest looking around the travel forum picking up tips and you will be going to places for next to nothing.

    I have flown with Ryanair over 20 times in the past two year and i don't think i paid more than £20 return for any of the flights. Cheapest was £2 return to Krakow.

    Get the right card to book with, keep your luggage down to what you can carry onboard with you as you won't need much for a few days away and you could be going off every week.

    When booking rooms always use a cashback site.
