    Sounds like there's quite a few of us going in September! We go on the 31st August to 15th September.

    Our next step is to start looking up shows and make some decisions on that. I think we only saw a comedy show last year, so we must do a bit better this time!! :o

    Hi all. I'm off to Vegas in a few days and was just wondering what nightlife is good there without paying extortionate prices? I'm 29 and looking for somewhere lively without being full of college kids. Any ideas welcome.

    Thanks.

    I don't know what sort of thing you are looking for, but Vegas IS the nightlife. Sit at a few fruit machines, grab a free beer or 2, and wander around the different casinos, watching the wildlife keeps us entertained for days!
    The common law of business balance prohibits paying a little and getting a lot. If you deal with the lowest bidder, it is well to add something for the risk you run, and if you do that you will have enough to pay for something better.

    just returned via Virgin Atlantic flight - what a disgrace.

    No hot chocolate, no tea, no coffee, no lemon or lime.
    Food disgusting.
    IFE not working
    Plane old and filthy

    Go BA if you can - and I never thought I would be saying that!!!

    With referencing the BA alternative, I presume that was from / to Gatwick (not Manchester)?

    the last 2 points should be remedied from Oct/Nov when the fleet refit is complete.

    with flights, it always seems to be a bit of a lottery - last flight I had to europe with BA was pretty shocking in terms of services/provisions... but have had other flights which were fine.
