well done

just remebered i did a fear of flying course this year with virgin   and they give you 2000 miles  for doing it so that may help out a bit

the woman who run our group her husband works in flight hospitality for virgin and he said to ring him when i booked
the main advice his wife gave me was if you dont like flying sit at the front  less movement and the angles on take off are not so scary
well its work a treat have flown since and always sit at front after a couple of jd and cokes  no problem

thing is easy to get early boarding on easyjet and pick your seat at front  but im guessinf virgin atlantic the front of the plane would be first class  but hell gonna ring him and see if he can do anything  not worried about first class just want the front of the plane
perhaps take my sir richard branson signed cert and hope they take pity on me

Bump

The dates i was looking to go were Monday 5th May to Monday 19th May

Yes i'm based in Essex

Excalibur would be fine but when the Luxor was offered   jumped at it

Tried all the hotels direct  no good   quoting   $2500  plus the Virgin flight £650

hi Guys

many thanks for the replies

My friend is getting married out there so am going for that but plus plenty of poker

Wanted to stay at the Luxor  with them  but was out of my range  so was looking at the Excalibur

Got a price today of her travel agents


unbelievable

2 weeks in the Luxor and direct flight with Virgin, free car hire for a week less than a grand  was well happy

then told her i was on my own

£2200    over a grand in single persons supplements

talk about kick a man when he's down    not only splitting with the missus but charged a fortune to go away

trying to find one of the other wedding guests who fancies doing two weeks but no one wants to they are all dissapearing to other parts of America and Mexico once the wedding is over

back to drawing board me thinks

any ideas

Richard
