    Me and the GF went to Zakinthos last August stayed in Laganas, we were suppose to fly from Man on TCX 757-300, but I took ill at the airport and they would not let my fly. Got sent home after visit to the docs who said I had food poisoning, she told me to rebook and get out there as the sun will do me good(guess I would trust here again)
    Rebooked a flight for the following morning with BY.
    Anyway 3 days in to the hols took ill again and was told I had Gastroenteritis (think that’s how you spell it). Well no late party nights for me, felt like poo and wanted to go home, managed to fly the TCX 753 home which was very good.
    Agree with the airport it was a cow shed with lights, total mayhem, and what made me laugh was we boarded the aircraft and it was still taking on fuel and there was a Greek chap stood at he side if the aircraft with 2 small fire extinguishers in a little trolley, yep that would certainly help if this thing goes up. Also there were some dogs running round the airfield which we had to avoid on taxi.
    Other than that place was ok, food was pants but the sea was really warm and the beaches are pretty nice.
    Have a good trip mate.

    So I take it that the whole bogie assembly is removed not just deactivated by means of software input?.

    Yes, you did explain before, it’s there new flagship

    Only messing I do understand why they got this and many other UK charters do the same. Maybe when one of them leases a Lanc bomber than we start to panic.

    Cheers

    Granted, but you have to agree they do get some media stick and it must be for a good reason.
    I have never once heard or talked to someone who as said that My Travel was great and I would defiantly consider using them again.
    I know they were the cheap end of the industry on pricing but now days they are all about the same. And I think there are a lot better out there, see if they last this season! I think that will be the decider
