« on: August 28, 2008, 05:57:32 PM »

My wife and I are staying in Plakias from the 16th to 30th September. We wondered if any of you could point us in the right direction regarding a decent local car hire firm?

I joined these forums recenlty and have found them really helpful in planning our forthcoming visit to Plakias in September.
I run a messageboard covering the Greek Islands and Mainland and would like to invite anyone who is interested along to share their experiences and contribute to the board.

I have added a link to these forums in my "Crete" category to enable my visitors to visit here!

The link is in my signature below and Thanks!

Holiday Companies / Jet 2 Com budget Flights to Crete

« on: February 12, 2008, 07:52:11 PM »

   I have mentioned this before in another category but this is more appropriate. As from May 2008 Jet 2 .Com are flying to Heraklion from Leeds Bradford airport . Flights are available from May to the end of September.

I recently used them to travel to Lanzarote and I could not fault the service. The flight outbound was on time and coming back we landed 30 minutes early.

Plakias / Staying in Plakias in September 2008

« on: February 12, 2008, 03:41:48 PM »

   Hello all I am new here and must say what a great site this is. My wife and I are travelling to Plakias for the first time in September of this year.

We are regular travellers to Greece and have been travelling all over for about 20 years, this will be our first time back for 16 years and Crete was our first ever Greek destination.

We tried to book with Olympic Holidays and found all the rooms were booked and after reading here that Kosmar have pulled out of the resort we can understand why.

We managed to book direct with Manolis who owns the Artemis Studios and any information on these would be appreciated.
We would also like to know how much we can expect to pay for a taxi down to the resort from Heraklion airport.

Budget flights are now operating to Heraklion out of Leeds Bradford airport with Jet 2 .com and start in May of this year for anyone who is interested. £390.00 return for two Pax not bad.

I will sign off for now but will pop back soon.
Regards Mark
