Scunner, have you ever been to Marmaris? You have warned against being a "left-turner" but your avatar seems to imply differently. Or perhaps it is a political, rather than geographical, comment?

I have been to Marmaris many times. The avatar was originally chosen to reflect life as a forum administrator  :)

I have never found a cheap flight to Dalaman, not in 10 years.
Phil has now retired, so we can go anytime now and from Scotland or the North of England.  Looked at flights yesterday, leaving from Scotland, Newcastle, Manchester....nothing cheap for April/May/June

Jacqui

Best to keep an eye on Skyscanner as the fares do change regularly. We have generally found that it is more reliable to book in advance. For example our flights for this June we booked back in July, and our flights for next September were booked by October.

I will be arriving in Fethiye for 10 days the second week in April with Easyjet - 3 adults return flights from Edinburgh, booked seats and hold baggage total cost £547.68. These flights were booked when the prices/times were first announced  on the first week of September 2014. There is normally a heads-up on both CBF and TA and no doubt Facebook and similar thingees when the flight details are announced. What with the free bus service for oldies in Scotland and deals with the major hotel chains it's not that difficult to get cheapish holidays these days - you think its bad from Aberdeen -  I have to travel from north of Inverness!
PS
The dates were of necessity Scottish school holiday dates.

I could not have booked in September as Phil (who had not really decided about retirement) did not retire until October.
We have, today, booked flights from Glasgow to Dalaman, got quite a good deal.  Also booked a cruise for another date, so looking forward to both.
Will remember this year to look out for flights early.
