I have a honeymoon booked to the Maldives in March 08. Am so, so, so excited - haven't travelled long haul for years!
I wanted to ask you seasoned travellers about the flight to the Maldives - we are going with Monarch and I believe it's a charter flight - our T/O is MyTravel - we are flying from Gatwick. Do you know if this is a direct flight?
How do you fill your time on such a long flight? (In cramped conditions?)
What are the meals like on these flights? Ie how many do they serve and what sort of food do they give you?
Years ago I flew to the Caribbean with Thomson and from what I remember they seemed to be feeding us every few hours, if not with a meal with snacks and drinks etc.
I would love to hear from anyone with any advice or stories about their flights (I am expecting the worse after reading Monarch reviews - just about how cramped the aircraft will be).
Not sure which forum I should be in with this - so please move my post if I'm in the wrong one!!
Thanks, Mrs M x
