Christmas bash... Newquay or Dubai... hmm, tough choice! ;) :p I'm not Ann!!!! :) Loolah, Am Loolah, Lools or insane are fine. Caroline if we want to be grown up!! Yes, my Dad actually really kicked off when we said we were even thinking about going via the States! (Wanted to go to Vegas?!) His reaction was soooo strong that we've dismissed it for fear of being written out of the will! :D |

Overheard a conversation in my hairdressers in the summer betwen one of the stylists and a famous snooker players wife who lives out there most of the year. They've got 8 bathrooms and she reckons she cleans them herself!!! :D Yeah right!! Lots of people we know in construction have gone out there the last 12 months on 2 or 3year contracts |

I know there have been numerous posts about flights but I have had a search and just can't find the information I need. My husband and I are looking to fly over in March/April time on working holiday visas initially with a view to getting PR once settled. We are thinking about possibly getting open ended return flights but aren't too sure if this is the best option. Can anyone advise us as to the best solution both practicality and cost wise and also explain how the open ended tickest work. I mean, are there time limits set on them etc? Also if anybody can recommend the best companies to look at that would be great. Thanks! Just booked the other day as house sold and are off on 3rd Dec we are going with air new zealand this time as more luggage allowance via la and stoping of for 2 days on beverley hills not bad price all in just over 3 thousand one way 3 adults and 1 child oldest is now 12 so payes adult fare travelling premium economy and 2 nights in 4 star hotel with 2 rooms. Looked at emirates but included 2 or 3 stops not my idea of fun on off on off etc. Good luck :D |

Actually it made a HUGE difference. But not for everybody, maybe...
It might concern me about luggage being transferred properly though. |
