Basic is no checked in baggage.
I have booked with them for a a wee break in June. I went for optima as it gave us 20kg each . It was still very reasonable.Quote:

Yes been with them quite a few times. I don't understand how it works with bags.
Couldn't ask for more apart from one time and there was a fault with the lift or whatever is used to get disabled people onto the plane.
They were running late and let the people able to walk on first. They then dragged people in wheelchairs up the steps...At the end you had one quite skinny steward guy with both arms around a largish womens torso, pulling her up.
No one had seen anything like it but we go there on time.
Went to Alicante with them-they were very good.
Glad people have had good experiences, i must be very unlucky as I had nothing but problems on so many flights. Gone down hill massively from when they 1st started and since the takeover been nothing but tight arses as they screw every f**k penny out of you. Just hope you never have to deal with the customer service for a refund.
The guys who set it up started another company recently called Volotea.
If you have had nothing but problems why did you continue to fly using them/ It makes no sense! :shrug:Quote:

And wear your dirty strides on your head on the return trip.Quote:

And Vueling goes direct for £85, in 2 hours, but you have to select the baggage option, you are going with British Airways?
I know what you are thinking "I didnt know there was a disneyland in Mallorca ?"
just checked, no disneyland in Mallorca, i thought maybe you knew something i didnt :thumbup:Quote:

Just not a fan of " budget airlines "
i was going to fly to Dublin on one of them from Bristol for a lads trip away, you had to pay for luggage, then pay to reserve your seat, in the end we didnt go ( not for the reasons of the flight, the trip just didnt take place )
another of my moans, we flew to Dublin last year ( on the way to orlando, dont worry, they dont have a Irish disneyland yet ) the drinks came around, i had a coffee, thats 3 euro's sir, so they now want you to pay for your drinks, 1st world problems though i guess
Vueling are going to Mallorca in June , they are the only ones doing non stop when I would like to go. The price is cheaper than a train ticket to London (with bags)Quote:

Nobody needs to check in luggage, reserve a seat or even buy a coffee for a short boys weekend in Dublin.Quote:
