RichardB...I dont know about you but am stuck with CA...because I want to...and last time that I travelled they had pasta or chicken, dessert, salad, bread etc...and every time that I travel is something different...

As I said in another threat...I never had any problem about my extra kg...different movies every time...safe journey...should I say more??


Maybe the Stiffado is reserved for the Manchester flight :lol:

But in all honesty I dont see how they can justify £200 per person more than BA for the same flight.

I'm not talking about a cheap no frills carrier but a scheduled flight the same as CA with the extra legroom etc but £200 per person cheaper

I dont know how you managed that but I always find a cheap ticket!

On the previous page I have pasted the 2 prices I was quoted today

As I mentioned before I have stuck by and used CA for years but they are getting beyond a joke with there pricing at the moment

And yes if you book very early or at the last minute you can get a cheap ticket but when you have to go on a specific date its hard to do that

Anyway I think £180 is a cheap flight from BA for going at Easter

I'm not saying CA are'nt good. I think they are. As I said I used them for years without a problem

My complaint is to do with their prices

Absolutley no offence taken Lena

I can actually remember the bad old days before we were spoilt for choice and the only airlines that flew into Cyprus were CA and BA and it cost £300+ per person for a ticket (and that was in 1981) when I was only earning £600 per month

So I guess we hav'nt really got a lot to complain about
