2009 now on sale from Manchester, flights from £157 inc taxes and baggage, be quick for the bargains
Thanks so much for that info. We said we would not fly from Manchester again but the flights are now at good times and this year we had such superb flights with Easyjet. So Thanks to you I have booked immediately for next September. The cost is about half of what I thought I would have to pay for Newcastle or Glasgow (my preferred options until now). Indeed much less than we paid this year. Also I have faith that easyjet will survive the financial crunch whereas some of my other options may have been dubious in that respect.
It has cost me a total of £334 for the two of us and that includes about £30 for speedy boarding.
For other people's info :-
I have done a lot of internal and short European flights with Easyjet and don't consider speedy boarding to be worthwhile. However it is very much worthwhile on the Manchester / Heraklion flights. At Manchester there is a special speedy checkin desk as well as 1st on plane and at Heraklion the speedy boarders (about 20 of us) got the first tarmac bus to ourselves and about 10 minutes alone in the plane to choose the best seats. Also the easyjet checkin at Manchester is at the very quiet terminal 3 and at Heraklion it is at the very end of the building with exclusive luggage X ray machines dedicated to easyjet. This made things very efficient and speedy at Heraklion - altogether a more pleasant experience
