BBC News this afternoon states:-

"The risk of an eruption at Iceland's Bardarbunga volcano has increased, after a series of earthquakes in the region.

The risk level to the aviation industry has been raised to orange, the second-highest level.

The eruption of Iceland's Eyjafjallajokull volcano in 2010 shut down much of Europe's airspace for six days, affecting more than 10 million people."

Lets hope we don't go through all that disruption again!

Thanks.

I'm waiting for April/May - should be any day now I would think but it might only be for April, May & June. Probably a bit too early for July/August.
I check the EZ website several times a day so I'll let you know as soon as anything changes

I've been getting emails in Portuguese again from Ryanair.  Strange.

I have read with interest of the disputes caused by people using the Knee Defender that prevent seats being reclined. Some people have come to blows.  No such problems on the no frills airlines.

The next thing I can see causing problems between passengers is Monarch's new "Mplayer" idea.

You beat me too it - checked 3 times this morning & it was still only up to end of March
Just booked 18th April through to 21st May from Luton for £116.24.
That's return for 2 people.
Not bad - less than £30 per person per flight.
Happy with that Smile

We never get these legendary cheap flights. It cost us £203 (with one bag) to go back for the ma-in-laws 80th birthday in April. Still not bad I know, but not 30 quid each...

I'm disappointed on two fronts, firstly that their flights only go to the end of May (I want to come over in June) and secondly we cannot get near those sort of prices. I do accept that flying from Newcastle will incur a higher charge for additional fuel but............

You have more chance of seeing a herd of wild Unicorn than getting a cheap flight from Gatwick.

I'm surprised because when I booked on Weds lunchtime there were plenty of dates, both from Luton & Southend. at these sort of prices. They were more expensive nearer to Easter (earlier than 18th April) and nearer to Whitsun (later than 21st May) but generally speaking that whole month (mid April to mid May) prices were in the range £25 to £35 for going out or coming back
