Lovely photos. Looks amazing. You can't beat flying with Jet2 either. My DD & family used them and her eldest (of 4) has autism and she also has a baby as well, so it was never going to be simple. She said they were brilliant with special assistance and pre boarding etc. We wouldn't use any other airline for short haul either, unless we absolutely had to.
Hope Mr SA is settled now and you can have a good holiday. Have a good sleep first....lol.Making the debt go down and savings go up

It looks beautiful. Have a wonderful time.
One lady at work was due back at 1am yesterday morning and won't be back until Friday now! She spent the night at the airport and is now back in a hotel. At least she got some extra holiday time x

Jet2 are brilliant can’t fault them at all. Special assistance at Zante airport was a bit hit and miss and they took forever to see to us. Ended up with a taxi driver and a Jet2 rep helping us and we weren’t even getting a taxi 😆 They were so busy at the airport as other flights had been delayed so can’t really moan.Absolutely shattered now we’ve had something to eat and I think we’ll call it a night after a couple of drinks. Tomorrow is another day.Still light here at just after 8pm and very warm.I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)7
