What a joke trying to get flights to anywhere other than the UK!

I've finally booked my flights for the England game in Belarus next month. The only finacially viable option was a return from Stanstead to Minsk so I need a flight back to the UK first! Every other flight from Tenerife was upwards of 700 euros

No wonder Tenerife is suffering if thats how much europeans have to pay to get here! Perhaps if the airlines made these routes more affordable to eastern europe, tourism would boom again.

Why don't you start up an Airline?

Freddie Licinius Really Nice Guy Airlines - all that hot air could keep a whole fleet in the air

Not only are people being charged a fortune to get here, when you do get here, half the time you are served up rubbish food, if you were served this in England, you would not pay for it. Not only that there are a lot of unscrupulous Taxi Drivers, also if you do not know where to go for a drink, you may end up paying through the eyes and nose for them. A Gentleman today said he paid €13 for a vodka and lemonade and a bacardi and coke, on the strip at Parque de la Paz. So a lot of the bar owners and restaurant owners need to get their acts together.

Are we operating an airline or hot air balloons

I have looked at aircraft chartering in the past but theres no way you can compete with the budget airlines and just a few empty seats will see you go under faster than Robert Maxwell!

Did you try tenerife north? flights up there seem to be much cheaper than TFS. Though if I wanted to go anywhere other than the UK I would fly back to the UK first and get a flight. It´s about half the cost

Yeah I tried TFN as Clickair are normally the cheapest way off the island but connecting onward flights are just not worth it.

Maybe it is I dunno for sure but when I flew from LHR via Mad last trip the first leg was BA & the 2nd Iberia with my bags going straight to TFS so I just assumed its complete.
