Is anyone else worried about their flight tomorrow?

We are flying at 10.20am, from Heathrow to Milan - I am so worried Strom Dennis is going to kibosh it.

Anyone else?

We were scheduled to be on a flight from Salzburg to Bristol as we were skiing last week. Two hours before we checked out of our accommodation on Saturday, I discovered that our flight was cancelled. We flew with easyJet. The flight from Salzburg to Bristol with Tui departed just fine.

We wound up getting a train to Vienna, and flying home yesterday, two days late. On the upside, we'd always wanted to visit Vienna, and we had a lovely time there.

Glad you got there OP. Have a fabulous week all, I'm very jealous of you all being there.

Our Luton to Barcelona flight was cancelled too and spent hours trying to get through to EJ to rebook to no avail.

Ended up driving all the way to Andorra in the end!

Oh well done Massistar! Hope you enjoyed Andorra 🇦🇩. Were you skiing at Grandvalira?

massistar · 26/02/2020 13:21

It was an epic journey!

Loved Andorra although wouldn't rush back to Pas de la Casa.. was a bit Benidorm on Ice!

we tended to head more over Soldeu way for skiing which was fab. Ridiculously warm though so ice in mornings and slush in afternoon. Lovely friendly people though!

I used to ski in Soldeu & El Tarter years ago when DH was learning to ski. It was always very good value & good fun. I remember the rumours of the resort one day would link up with Pas de la Casa!

We were in soldeu and El tartar last week. It was amazing! I couldn't believe how great the snow making was despite the weather.

NCTDN · 26/02/2020 19:11

We had a school in our hotel that had their flight cancelled so ended up driving all the way instead.

massistar · 26/02/2020 21:17

@NCTDN yep. To be fair they hadn't had any actual snow since 26th January so they did well.

Too damn hot for me though. I was stripping down to a T-shirt in the lift queues by the afternoon!
