I can't fathom out all this negative moaning, if KE can do it in a couple of hours and ID and MW are so passionate about the "nor mal fans" for this one, why haven't they put their moaning efforts into organising another plane for them ? I'd gladly pay it for the day and experience it is if i could have got off my other commitments, I have done in the past.

Northwich,
You and others are not bothering to read what I have actually written are you?
I'm not moaning about it for pitys sake. What part of my description stating I'm not really bothered are you not understanding.
I actually only got involved to explain to another poster where ID was coming from and made the observation that it could have been more inclusive just like other clubs do with their charters and range of packages.
The problem with some people at the moment is that they interpret every fucking observation as being a stab at the heart of the football club and feel the need to bandy the word negative around like worn out washing.
Is it a crime to talk about any aspect of the club in a none jizzing your pants way just because we are doing well in the league, in which case what is the point of the message board?
It will become a bit of a boring desert if even the most mild criticism and observation is to be censured. I can show you examples.

As MarkW will see from the mail I have now sent him, the cost of the MAN to NCL 189 seater aircraft fully inc was low enough to provide flight only at around £120, but you need an agent to organise payments and issue of tickets (and underwrite the cost element on which they are entitled to make some profit). That's what the club has now done, but they have chosen to provide what, on the face of it, is a good value package, inc transfers, meals, tickets etc.
I've not criticized the club on their manner in delivering the package, just expressed my disappointment that I had raised expectation re options for travel only to find that the price is beyond what was originally envisaged.

Mark, If it wasn't your agument stay out then, ID is big enough to fight his own corner and he does it quite often ;D You jumped on ID's side who was being negative and stabbing the club with his first post, unfortunatley you got tarred with his brush

£275 is probably cheaper than a meal & ticket to watch Arsenal! Sounds like a great package to me! Enjoy it

No, they just do a mean Espresso , best from a chain I have had in the UK, best non-chain was from Bar Italia in Soho (the subject of a song by Pulp)

I think by the time you get there a Caffe Nerro espresso and a Viennoiserie will be just the ticket
Don't moan if your coach stops on the M40 and you overhear a fellow passenger talking about the fabulous cup of Nescafe they had from the machine- only 25p as well- lovely with a Twix.

Surely if you were at the airport they'd automatically assume you were flying Aeroflot MW
You do get a crusty roll and tin cup of water en route-the life jackets very you- very 'Onedin line' or 'Triangle' , 70s chic
Any news on Ilford Dave yet- he's taking longer than michael Palin did to get to Nepal. Must be at the drinking his own urine stage now-
