Title: moving to Calis
Post by: sarah1 on March 06, 2005, 14:54:43 PM

Hi, we are moving to Calis later this year with our daughter who will be 11 and starting school in Fethiye.  Our son will be staying in England with his grandmother until next year as he is so close to finishing his GCSEs he wants to stay back to get them finished.  We bought a house in Calis 3 years ago and will be staying in that when we arrive.  My biggest concern is getting our 2 bulldogs to Turkey safely.  I wondered if anyone could let me know if they have taken dogs out from Gatwick to Dalaman and which airline they used.  Thanks, I look forward to hearing from you soon.

p.s. hi Jamie and Jade, you wont be alone cos Megan's coming to school with you!!!

Hi Lorna, thanks for getting in touch, I'm having trouble finding anything on the search forum to do with getting my dogs out there.  Maybe I'm just being a bit blonde!  When are you moving out there?

Hi Sarah, Welcome to the forum, when i flew last July i used Ladyhaye who are based about 20 mins from Gatwick. We flew with my Travel and i did most of the paperwork, however, Ladyhaye will do all the paperwork for you.

Hi Lorna,

You movin out for good in May?  Lucky you!! Got to sell our house first so looking for summer holiday time for the big move.  Decided to bring our son as well now, who will be 15, but what good are gcses anyway in Turkey??  He'd be better off learning turkish as well.  Had more trouble with dogs than thought but think we have found Turkish Airlines who will fly from Gatwick to Antalya then drive down. We are on holiday for a week in april (just me and hubby this time) then that will be it.....next flight out will be for good.
