Travel to Paris - Help!
« on: May 03, 2006, 05:58:21 PM »
Okay, so having been all smug for getting my ticket to this damn football match, i find that I can't actually get out there!

I know there was a travel agent on here somewhere, and I would be ever so grateful if someone could help me, please, to get to Paris on the 16th May, returning on 18th May.  I don't mind if I don't fly to/from London, I just want to pay less than £200!

If anyone could help, you would be my friend forever, and free immigration advice is yours until the day I die.....

Are you at all flexible on the dates?  You could do Easy Jet for under that if you can go earlier or later by a day.

Thanks.  That's not bad...but it means I need to find somewhere to stay for 4 nights, which will be a challenge!


Argh!  I have *so* not planned this!

Yeah you'll have to balance the extra you save from the change of date with the money you will spend on a place to stay!

Yeah, except i've just realised that I forgot to change the times in my calculations, so I am actually going to miss my ferry back from Calais!

 :P

Still, getting there is the important thing!
