I would book this in a heartbeat, but getting from Glasgow to SAL return is around £541 (and to get there takes a horrendous long time in Y), and then with a few nights hotels, would take the total amount to around ~£1400 - I'd be best ploughing my money into a ex-EU fare in the end

I reckon you could get that little lot for about £2.2k and 2,580 TPs. Throw in a second trip and you could have GGL/CCR in two weeks for around £4,400 (and a rather large therapy bill!)

Do we think that the LGW-RAK flights at £280 in CE are going up after the sale ends at midnight?
Just gave someone that recommendation and wouldn't want them to lose it.

If it originates somewhere other than SAL that would be fantastic
