This is a very tasty deal, and a better alternative for visitors than me going out to pick them up, particularly when you include the exorbitant cost of parking at Dalaman Airport (Al Capone Parking)  >:(

I asked Orange if they could price match or better this fantastic offer  and they said no, the prices on there web site was what they will be charging for 2013 so there is one company who might need a rethink sooner rather than later ....

Is that like going into Bella Mama and telling them the price of a steak in the Orient Express and asking them to better it. :(

FethiyeLovers are not matching it either. Arthurs says that it's less than cost. I think the others might be waiting for him to fall flat on his ar*e   ;)

I worked out a while ago that it must take about
12 ltrs of fuel @ about £1.60/ltr =  £19.20
Tunnel 3.5 to 5tl each way         =  £ 3.00
Parking 5 to 8 tl                          =  £ 2.00
                                     Total      =  £24.20
That is before the cost of the vehicle, wear & tear, tyres etc and labour which as a minimum is 2 hours.
How can they possibly make any money at £25?

Bewva - the big money is made when they have another fare going in the opposite direction, when busy they never travel empty that's why many of the companies only work during the tourist season.

Yes exactly - which is why they will be hoping for a good number of bookings - Bewva's 80p profit becomes £25.80 profit if the bus returns with customers in.
