The speedy boarding did work though.

Check in was 3 hours at Sharm when I travelled home in August. However they wouldn't let me through security until the 3 hours before, just depends sometimes on the whim of the guards!! or maybe the odd bit of backshish!!

That's me out then...more than chunky. Weight Watchers here I come!

This all sounds very scary! how can they leave people behind if seats have been booked and are are available? if the plane is overweight, where is the control on the luggage? maybe I will have to go on a diet...that will be the next thing! overweight passengers! I can just imagine having to call...

I would say definitely yes to easy boarding. Worked well both ways to and from Sharm but then all I really wanted was an isle seat! however, got the best seat ever on the way back as plenty of leg room...by the window but could just walk out of it for the loo as it was by the emergency door, so...

Done! for Easter! £360 to include speedy boarding and 20kg.

Thanks, Dawn, that looks really good but unfortunately I'm stuck with the school holiday dates because of my work. Easter is a struggle...Kiss doesn't start until may either and in August they are £490. And yes, I was in Sharm Airport on my own! no hassle, no bother!!

Ooops sorry,one way! one of the problems is that flights are not every day. My connection home was tiring as I arrived in Sharm from Hurghada at 10.30am and my Easyjet flight to Gatwick wasn't until 9.30pm. Still, the cafe wasn't expensive, the book was good and I had been over there for almost...

There's a problem with their website at the moment...logo changing or something! when I bought in advance it was £20, when I bought only one week ahead it was £26. Did it all on line, flight took 20 mins, better that 12 hours on the bus for £8.50! the ferry is £26 for foreigners but it had...

Thanks James. So I have to wait until December? :eek: just trying to get my life sorted!!

Hi, am looking for direct flights to Hurghada from London at Easter .... found some at £500-600. Easyjet don't seem to be booking flights after March 31st. Are they planning to fly there? when will they release their flights? any ideas? I might have to fly to Sharm and transfer by Egyptair. Groan!

No, not daily, about 4 times a week. The planes seem to stop off in Hurghada between Cairo and Sharm and between Alexandria and Sharm. Have been thinking that it may be better to book a cheap package deal, just to use the flight prices and not use the accommodation! :D

I had planned to take the ferry but it had broken down and was not functioning for at least a couple of weeks. It is £25 for foreigners and you don't seem to be able to buy a ticket on-line. The bus, however is £8.50 if you don't mind the 12 hour trip!!!

Egyptair are very good, takes 20mins from Hurghada to Sharm. Only £26 when I travelled in August. :cool: However flights are not every day and I had to wait 10 hours in the airport for my connection! :eek: there's a nice cafe, not too expensive and I had a good book to read! Can't go in to the...

I have heard that if you pay by credit card that their 'insurance' should cover you. It's scary isn't it. I suppose we need to learn from this not to pay with debit cards even if you have the funds as it doesn't cover you in any way. Good luck folks if you are involved.

West Side Village was just being started when I was there in April. Part of the development has been built for some time but I haven't seen anything being done to it for about a year! it's just down the road from DP and CSP and Regency Towers. It's a nice area to be in, others are well out of...

Hi, well, all I can say is that it is right on the main road, on a T-junction. I suppose that if you bought at the back it wouldn't be too noisy. The traffic there isn't too bad at the moment. It looks over the Simbad complex, the hotel and the aquapark. The artists impression is a little...

Thanks, Isab. Does anyone have a flat to rent in Sharm? One bedroom, pool, air con please! probably from July 22nd for a week.

Well when I was there last month it was nowhere near ready!

I'm there from the 4th for 10 days. Meet up at Costa's sometime? :)
