Plakias / Strategic Airlines
« on: May 11, 2011, 10:47:17 PM »
Just back from a fantastic 2 weeks and reporting on the Strategic flight!

Well, at check in we were told that there would be no food, drink or any other items available to buy unless a meal had been booked because their delivery had not arrived!

We did however get 2 complimentary drinks, tea, coffee or water during the flight!

The flight itself was on time but based at the furthest away gate and we were taken on a bus to board.  

Apparently they only have 2 planes and are registered in Luxembourg. both are the  A40 Airbus (and they look very well worn to me. ) One flies from Manchester and one from Gatwick.

Seat comfort not too bad,had worse on some Monarch flights.

On the return they seem to have improved , although some of the snacks/food sill not available. Didn't book a meal but met someone who did and he said it was the usual stuff you get!

Both flights were on time although 2 changes were made weeks before .

PlakChat / Local bus to Chania?
« on: April 12, 2011, 09:34:39 PM »
Only 2 weeks to go and I will be there |||||  

Is there anybody with experience of travel by local bus, in recent years, able to help  ?  

 I have the local bus timetables but I'm not sure how long it takes from place to place to work it out  


1.   Can I get from Plakias-Rethymnon, on to Chania and back in 1 day?

2.    Is it possible to get to Elounda/Ag Nik. for a trip to Spinalonga in 1 day?

3.    can I get to Phaestos and back in a day ?

4.    can I get to Aghia Galini and back?

5.     any other suggestions gratefully received, thanks Jann

For us poor souls who have already been this year, just a little reminder of some of the things we've been missing!

   

Also I'm still on the lookout for a cheap extra hol Sept/Oct if anyone spots a bargain ???

Plakias / What are these buildings?
« on: June 08, 2010, 01:18:15 AM »
I took this photo in Plakias a few weeks ago, because the big Tamarisk tree we used to sit under 18 years ago was still there. ( no sunbeds and just a rough track down to it then)

Looking at it again I realise I don't know what the buildings opposite are,  I don't think they were there then, and can't find them on the Forum map ?

Could the first one be 'On the Rocks' I didn't go any further up that way,wish I had now  



I'm sure somebody will know ?

PlakChat / Olympic 2010
« on: May 24, 2010, 10:35:05 AM »
I feel I must give a mention to their fantastic rep in Plakias 'Ian'  

Overall I was very impressed with my late booking experience with Olympic,  but in particular with their Rep Ian.  

He couldn't have been more helpful, had plenty of local knowledge and was always available . An extremely nice genuine person with a particular love of Plakias himself.  


Many thanks Ian if you are reading
