Mike should visit the Munster forum to see the pics of the cheerleaders at South American fooball games. That would keep him busy for a while

[Rooster]

Where did you read about the official tours?
For £400 I'd expect to take the whole family Priced both Biarritz and Treviso last weekend and both flights can still be got for under £100 return.

[Rooster]

Strange if they are "official" trips that no mention on the dark side

[BR]

Anybody know who's doing them? I'd be interested in the detail.

[Rooster]

£400, must have food, beer and a bed warmer included

[Freddie Benson]

and a couple of.....ahem....'cheerleaders'

[BR]

You've got to weigh up all the costs.

£400 sounds steep, but if it's a door to door service with dates and times that suit, it could be OK.

I remember saving £100 on flights one year by flying on a Thursday (this was in the days when £100 was real money ) , but the extra hotel night reduced that to £80. And by the time we'd pay for the extra beer and the hospital bills - it'd have been cheaper to fly out on the Friday.

Did you really think I was thinking about a hot water bottle Freddie

Freddie's mind is a bit on the literal side rooster - I knew what you meant

You talking about a limo to airport and a private jet here BR

[BR]

If they were to offer a direct charter ex BFS early Friday pm, transfers and dep BIQ late Sunday pm. It'd be worth considering. We tend to think of these things in terms of ryanair/easyjet prices - but there is an argument to pay the extra and lose the hassle - like I say limiting the length of the stay/travel time would save a small fortune in beer money to start with.

Looked them up on the Classic Travel site and they are direct charters from Belfast with flight ony options at £341.50 and £381.50 convenient yes BR but expensive I can get the whole family to Treviso with Aer Lingus for that sort of money.

Thanks Rooster - it can be considered. I'm going to Treviso with ryanair, but I was looking for a quicker way of getting to Biarritz - can't really afford the 2 days travelling via Stanstead. With this one I get the guts of 3 days in Biarritz for 1 day off work. Worth considering anyway.
