Either some of you guys are faster than me, or BA has zeroed out the U bucket on the 12:55 pm LGW-JER service

I noticed that a few days ago when T8191 first suggested dates so suspect just no availability rather than quickfire FTers

Aye, seat map is empty

I5 too and the cheaper Y buckets zeroed out

I think the JER services are popular enough BA realised it doesn't need to sell them cheap

Radisson or the Grand. The rest tend to be in 'Nightclub District'

Ahem ... how many have you been to now? Or are you referring to Lady T, rather than your regal/legal 'we'?

The Royal Best Western is also decent though a leisurely 15/20 mins stroll from The Bar.

MLA-LGW-JER ... simples! And getting home is even easier, as the JER red-eye Captain takes the early MLA from LGW

I love your Island, and I love mine too. Go on, go for it!! A nice long weekend

What is the Royal Yacht like? Seems reasonable, and is cheaper than the Radisson.

Hmmm... Just checked google flights and I can fly back from Malaga in CE on a mix of BA and Iberia for £325 netting me 180 TPs.

£301 in Economy.

Bargain!

Maybe count me in!

It is not too bad KARFA, different style to the Radisson but quite pleasant.
