2025 Who is going ?.

[WINKIE]

Anyone heading out ?, where and for how long ?. Looking at end of May for us, one week to begin with at Olympia  .

Good thing about being a retired old fuddy-duddy is being able to go when you want and not have to book a year in advance, so we will wait and see. We too would look at the end of May to End of June, but would not rule out April. We will also look at September in particular if summer here is like last year. The heating went off 23rd and has just been fixed today, apart from the cost, it has made us keen to have some heat, even more so as some of the kids have been to Thailand and are now in Oz

Good Morning All, We are going out 2nd June, staying at Athina for 2 weeks. We stayed early May last couple of years but found the weather very poor ,( although it did save on AC) so trying a bit later this year

We spent ours there too, lovely place and hosts.

A few more of us might be looking to go if you view the webcam here. A cool 18c there is a lot better than the freezing -1c here in Yorkshire. Our little close is an ice rink, impossible to walk on it and not so much fun driving. Poor lady across the way had an ambulance visit and it could not get her out of the close because someone got stuck in the snow!

Care to say where you will be staying Jackson ?.

Despite now being child free we are stuck with schools hols and associated prices because wife works at a school. So we book independent and I hunt for cheapest flights.
Jet2 flights from East Mids is our preference but this year they were £600 more (for two of us) than Ryanair from East Mids so Ryanair it is.
Wife breaks up from school on Wednesday 23rd July and we fly out morning of Friday 25th to the amazing Fedra for two weeks. Can’t wait!

They were saying flights were a big factor in the inflation rate rises, but you have to say we have had low prices for a while now, so it hurts all the more having large increases. We've not been away for sometime now, out of choice. When we do travel it will be back to independent travel for us too. After doing this for years we are quite used to it and will pick the airline and airport where the flights suit us the best. We are quite happy to split the carrier and use Jet2 going and RyanAir on the return. No parking at airports for us either, so can and will go and come back using different airports. Although we live in Yorkshire, we've done Stansted that many times we are quite happy to look at it as an option too.

Hi Mary, good to see you on here, never stayed in SM, but enjoyed a few beverages at the bar, lovely pool area, and a fab central location.
