Hello
Has anyone used the services of Viking airlines during 2009 to get to Rhodes from Bristol. If you did, can you please say whether they stuck to the flight times or were you subjected to changes or delays?
The reason for asking is that the 2010 flight times look good for the ferry connections both to and from Halki but obviously if they change then that may no longer be the case.
I have reviewed the Viking airline customer service websight which flags up some complaints regarding delays to flights.
Many thanks.

Hi Angie welcome to the board, I have just looked at flight times for next september from Bristol and the flight does not leave until 16.35 arriving 22.55, meaning an overnight stop in Rhodes, have you found something different ? Very interested in this as we live in Cardiff ;D

Carol, if I can help you; as with Emma; I will.
But then, next year, I need crew!
Be afraid, be very afraid!

Hi Angie and welcome ;D
Theres something to think about Carol ...would a night on Rhodes be preferable to a night at Gatwick ??

Yes but it would still mean missing our first night on Halki !!
Thank you Simon for your very kind offer, and many many years ago I used to crew for my Uncle who kept his boat at Faversham Creek in the depths of Kent ;D

So get out here in September & help me out Captain!
Get a bigger Mr Spikey than Chalkibert.
We'll see if your shorts stay clean!
I have not forgotten about all those beers you owe me!

Angie, are you looking at the 8.30am flight from Bristol to Rhodes (there's one down fro 25/8 returning 8/9 with Viking)? We haven't travelled with them, but friends we met this year did and they had no problems (they actually set off early). They seem to be offering a lot of flights this year so maybe they've picked up the Excel routes  |
