Congrats to you and Lady Kalos. You deserve all the good news that comes your way

It's interesting. Clear blue sea, clear blue sky. The town in Sal has a few tourist tat shops, but some local shops as well. It's really a place to sit in the sunshine. We did a tourist trip to have a look around. Worth a visit, but most of the AI hotels are stunning.

Absolutely. We flew to cap Verde with TUI on a 757 with no PE, but we selected extra legroom seats during the booking process. We selected the seats that were acceptable and were aware that there would not be any inflight entertainment.

I wonder how long before they chuck out some cruise only deals to the trade. They can then put together some decent packages.

Sorry Avril this isn't the plaice for fishy jokes.🤣

You are right. The only real solution is to cancel this one and think very carefully about future bookings. There are a few nasty comments. For some folk no PE means no flight. Us included. That's why we cancelled. The base price for the cruise is now about £1,000 less + the PE premium. Still not tempted.

We try and book the extra leg room seats on TUI. They have added a few more rows now. We fly with them on Monday. I think it was £18 per seat each way. To us that is well worth it. On BA club is a lot more than that, with not much, if any extra legroom. We did a fly cruise to Tenerife in February. Seat selection didn't charge extra for the ' good ' rows so we got extra legroom free. Makes a change to get one over P&O🤣

We booked a tour of Nova Scotia with Globus flying direct to Halifax. When all the 737max's were grounded, Globus emailed me asking if I would like to cancel, or for them to arrange alternative flights via Toronto. We accepted their alternative and they got 2 happy customers, who have since booked with them again.

We have an Arvia cruise booked for April, but as we could do with a few more NCL/RCI points, that may be it for a while.

I cancelled mine, so will get everything I'm expecting.

Is that like paper, rock, scissors?🤫

European fly cruises with P&O don't offer PE, as far as I know.

If you tried to book PE and it was full, what deposit ?.

Give you the option to cancel the booking and have all money refunded.

If they sell you premium economy and can't provided you should have the right to cancel the contract and have all monies refunded. When I booked P&O said... yes lots of PE available, so we booked. If the Lady at Southampton had said...sorry, we don't have a clue what aircraft, or carrier we will be using..depends on what we can find. We wouldn't have booked.

Medic Travel Compared can produce some decent quotes.

Gail goes for the maltesers Mc flurry, I am loyal to the apple pie.🤣. Woking is not a particularly large town, but we are blessed with 3 McDonalds.🤣

On your recommendation we had a coffee and a sandwich in Greggs lunchtime. Mc Donald's!!??.

Thanks Graham.😆

I'll pass on the Captains lunch, but thanks for asking🤣

A baby waver.🤣

We fly off to Menorca on Monday and only have 15kg each. DW gets 29kg, I get to take an extra pair if shorts.

I can't see a problem. Just give the baby a can of coke to take into the bar. If the waiter says ' you can't bring drinks in " tell him to tell the baby.

Perhaps we should all form a picket line in the baggage hall...." what do we want?.....Our Cases.....when do we want them......Now...🤣🤣

You could both board at 15.00.🤫
