Hurghada
I usually book Excel. I normally organise a liveaboard evry year for our club, sometimes two for 18 divers. I've used Excel for the last 5 years or so. Apart from the limited leg room, erverything else has been reasonably efficient considering the cost. Never a problem with luggage/kit as long as you don't take the pi$$....

July return to hurghada is costing £266 incl fuel surcharge.

Enjoy...

Aestreous may seem more expensive but their baggage allowance for divers is excellent.... we are flying with them in less than 2 weeks, have nearly 60 kg of allowance between the two of us... they are well known to offer excellent service. We flew with Monarch last time, if I can offer one signle bit of advice then that is NOOOOOOOOOOO - dont do it, rude, ignorant and well I could carry on but I would rather not.... basically avoid at all cost...

Cheap flights to Hurghada
Hi John -

We have a few seats left on the London Gatwick - Hurghada flight on 7 July.

The cost for a return flight is £329 including taxes and ticketing. We fly with Astraeus.

Alternatively, 7 night Bed and Breakfast packages start at £379 the same week.

Hope this helps!

Laura

Hi All,

Thanks for all the useful info. I just need to get the dates confirmed and I'll be investigating all the options you've suggested.

Thanks
J
