Boulder5111 Posted August 9, 2010 Share Posted August 9, 2010 Hello all, Due to a family illness, I have 2 tickets for sale to Las Vegas flying from Manchester direct on 1st September and returning on 15th September. The total cost for the pair was £1238 which includes meals, extra luggage allowance (20Kg) and seats together. The flight is Thomas Cooks direct service and having spoken to their call centre, a refund is not available, the only way I can retrieve anything is by selling the tickets on and paying £40 for a name change on each ticket. If anyone is interested, please contact me (or please pass on to anyone that you think might be interested). Obviously I would be willing to listen to offers since I'll be losing the original cost otherwise. I'd be happy to answer any further questions on this thread if anyone is interested. Many thanks....

Sir Puntalot Posted August 9, 2010 Share Posted August 9, 2010 Re: For Sale - 2 Flights to Vegas Normally we don't allow this kind of thing, but I'd hate to see you lose that amount of cash, so I'll make an exception here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boulder5111 Posted August 21, 2010 Author Share Posted August 21, 2010 Re: For Sale - 2 Flights to Vegas Hi guys. apologies for not replying sooner but it's been a bit hectic these last few days. The situation is still a bit cloudy I'm afraid :\ Having initially been told that the travel insurance claim was a 'no go', I decided to take Burnley Joes advice and try calling them anyway. Basically, I had a fairly encouraging chat with the call centre and they are sending me the forms to make a claim (thanks Joe). If this was successful, I'd be eligible for a refund less the taxes and any 'extras'. So that's it really, I'm kind of pinning some hope to that being successful but obviously if I got a decent offer to sell them on, then that would also be a possibility. Just thought I'd pass on the current situation, although everything it still up in the air and there's less than 1.5 weeks to go ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jedinight7 Posted August 25, 2010 Share Posted August 25, 2010 Re: For Sale - 2 Flights to Vegas Just curious are they Direct Direct? ie no stopovers, most ive found take about 23h trip with at least one stop off at some other part of the states?

Boulder5111 Posted August 25, 2010 Author Share Posted August 25, 2010 Re: For Sale - 2 Flights to Vegas Hi, yes there are direct direct - I've used this service before, it takes around 11 hours. It's currently the only direct service to Vegas from Manchester but I belive Virgin are starting one later in the year (I think). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
