most can make arrangements for an extra fee.
Yup and that extra fee makes a <24 hour car rental almost £150.
My point was that both Eastern and MME want to make a go of things with UK connectivity - All of Easterns' flights arrive after 6pm
If Eastern want to make a go of the newly announced LHR and LCY route to MME then stuff like car rental should be available.
I've canx'd all the flights now got my money back -
I now gather the actual SOU-MME service may not now operate anyway, so I would likely have been re protected on the Leeds or NCL services.
Anyway I think I back now again to using the car....
