Well folks, like everything in life…you get what you pay for.

I did a little research; you may like the results.

Theory: I want to go on holiday to BGI with my girlfriend Travelling MAN to BGI staying in a 4T hotel in Crystal Cove for seven nights all-inclusive.

Choice # 1 Pay £2070 for an all expenses holiday to BGI for a week, for two. Departing MAN returning MAN

Choice # 2 Pay BA £1397.00 for flt only ticket (economy class and the flt leaves LGW so includes the internal flt) then pay for a week in the hotel plus food.. . . .Choice # 3 Pay BA £ 4853.80 for flt only ticket (World Traveller Plus, because I am demanding more legroom) then pay for a week in the hotel and food.

Choice # 4 Pay BA £11627.80 for flt only ticket (first class, because that’s how all humans should travel) then pay for the hotel and food.

Having flown BA economy and charter, I can confirm that they are both uncomfortable. Since I am paying, I choose to go charter, just like everyone else. But I understand that if I want affordable holidays then I’m going to have to compromise.
