Waspy Posted March 3, 2014 Share Posted March 3, 2014 Planning a holiday all inclusive with the mrs and an other couple in August - looking to spend about 500 pounds a head so if anyone has a good recommendation then please share! You Will struggle to get an all inclusive deal for August at £500 unless you get a late deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hipster Dufus Posted March 9, 2014 Share Posted March 9, 2014 Staying at the Mandalay bay and then the MGM when returning from LA and got a hire car for the day before we leave for La (going to Carson City) and then the four days in La and then the day after we get back. Car is going to clock up a fair few miles. Heard about the tipping system in America I'm not tight so won't bother me. What are the chances of a complimentary upgrade ? I'm sure our rooms are fairly decent anyway but wouldn't say no to an upgrade. MB has a fantastic pool and lazy river. Also, be sure to sign up online for Border Grill's VIP Club, which will get you a Buy One Get One entree. That includes their brunch if you are there at the weekend. It is superb. Standard rooms at MB are very impressive. Start at 550 sq ft, I think. You should get unlimited miles with your rental car but let them know that you will be taking it to California, in case they have some sort of "Nevada Only" clause going on.

Adam Posted March 12, 2014 Share Posted March 12, 2014 In the past few weeks I've got a walking holiday sorted. Three nights away walking to the most remote pub in mainland Britain. Done it last year and had a ball, but we done it on a spartan budget. This time we're booked into a 4 star lodge, complete with outdoor hot tub. Decided to go away with a couple of friends from uni in May. We were looking at Blackpool for a weekend on the piss. Instead, we've found flights and accommodation for Benidorm for an extra £40 each. Will probably get down south at some point to visit the in-laws as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As well as Brazil for the World Cup, I'm now going to Benicassim in July, Dortmund for Scotland game in September and finally Ibiza for the closing parties at the end of September. Busy few months coming up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kerrdavidson95 Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 Going canal boating in Shropshire in two weeks time, basically jaunting about pubs for the weekend. Come 14th June I'll be joining ship, going to Iceland, Greenland, Norway, Shetlands, Estonia, Russia, Finland, Germany, Sweden, Belgium, Netherlands, Portugal, Spain, Morocco and France. Disembark sometime in October. Then away and again mid-November over Christmas and New Year, hopefully with the fly-cruise season in the Caribbean, turning around overnight in Barbados. Other possibilities include three months around Africa or Arctic & Baltic again. Hopefully squeeze some road trips around the country in between times, and planning to get my Private Pilots License before the end of the year.

kerrdavidson95 Posted April 10, 2014 Share Posted April 10, 2014 Well, its going from a canal boat to working on a cruise ship - practising I suppose - but yeah theres no difference between this... and this... Norway is horrifyingly expensive, I paid £38 for a pizza to share in Kristiansund and £8 for a bottle of water and a Daim bar, so I presume Greenland and Iceland are the same, but its something different. All the cruises turnaround in Liverpool, Belfast or Greenock too, so its not too far to travel to get there and get home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Gandosaur Posted April 10, 2014 Share Posted April 10, 2014 Not away again this year (Was in Hamburg in January and Cardiff and February) but I'm off to Thailand to live for a year in January. Stopping in Kuala Lumpur for a week on the way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

calum_gers Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 Just booked flights for a month in Australia at the end of October/early November. Got mates in Perth and Brisbane. Should be a good one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stuart Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 This year I was meant to be going away with my fiance and her pal and her pals boyfriend, however, the pal and her boyfriends split up and have cancelled their half of the holiday. It was already fully paid for and they are losing 30% of what they paid. Does anyone know if me and my fiance will be allowed to use the money still left in the account to upgrade our flights or does that money go straight to the travel agent/hotel etc?
