hello
flew from Man with Monarch for £260 for a week at http://www.phoenixparkinngoa.com with my mate flight out ok was on the beach at 10 am.
Went to Casino boat on the Sat and eat then promptly was as sick as a parrot
Bought diamonds AGAIN from Guru in Candolim...lovely and some handbags from Rambo next door, nice bags but he has put his prices up, I give him pictures in March of the next big thing in bags for Nov he makes them selld loads - jimmy choo chloe etc then gives me a pathetic discount so I might not give him any more pics.
ANYWAY
last day very cloudy but got sunburnt
then at 5am friday we get a cab to airport in the pouring rain for our 8.30 flight.......check in night mare they are weighin everyones bags so I start to worry as I have a heavy case.
our bags were 41.1 so no charge but they charged th epeople in front £7 for every kilo over and they were 18 over
A passenger then tells us we are delayed and our plane is not landing till 12
we take off at 1
as we walk to th eplane we are told we are stopping in Bahrain for 4 1/2 hours
we land in bahrain and 4 hours later we get back on.
This is the captain speaking theres a problem with the fuel pipe so we are waiting for an engineer (its very very hot on the plane)
1 hour later and sweating . This is the captain speaking everyone is here and we are ready to go
2 seconds later I shout out why is there an empty seat behind me
then
Then he shouts a passenger is ill and we are going to see if we can leave without taking his bag off....you so know that wont happen.
we then are asked if we want to get off which most did as it was 100 degrees on th eplane ..somone in premium chirped up ' how inconsiderate' as we left the plane so I gave her a nice look
so we sat in Bahrain for 8 hours...how fun and landed this morning at 2am
GREAT
No vouchers at bahrain even though they said we were going to have them and no one announced our flight at bahrain..duh
still go back though
Glad you had a time vegasone - again. Was the Phoenix park as good as usual as we are going shortly.
my review on phoenix park remains the same..its the best hotel in goa.
vegasone,what time do you get on boat and what time do you get off,would you recommend it.thanks
I get on th eboat at 8 and get off when I run out of money it goes sailing at 10 for an hour and yes its a fun night out, black jack and 3 card poker and roulette are on offer. There is also a casino in panjim at the marriot but my jeweller man guru says its not as good, its called winners casino
Hope to see you there in Feb Vegasone
you saying you only get an hour on the boat vegas?
we were in the departure lounge at dabolim at 1030 waiting for the mytravel flight - flight took off at 1330 landed in Manchester at 1830 - i am sympathising with you - monarch really need a kick up the backside!

flew Monarch 5/11/2006 Airbus, flight on time in both directions, plenty of leg room, even in cattle class.Staff friendly and helpful.
No Les you can stay on it all night, I think it closes at 4 am but you can get the launch on the hour if you want to get off at any time
Good to have you back online Lin
