Could I tap in, please, to the experiences of those of you who have travelled from Gatwick to Symi this summer?
(a) Our flight is timed to depart 0945 and I'm not known for my enthusiasm for abiding even by a check-in of 2 hours in advance. The tickets have just arrived ( ) - and suggest *3* hours check-in ( We had a long wait to get though security in June so grudgingly I was planning on 2-ish hours - have others had to queue for longer?
(b) it's been our habit to bring back in our hand luggage ouzo from the barrel in plastic water bottles. Of course that's now disallowed under anti-terrorism regulations - but again, in June security was so lax I don't think it would have been a problem. Has anyone tried it? Am not sure I fancy the prospect of giving my main luggage an ouzo pre-wash.
Only 16 days to go...
