There was a time when a small group of us, about 6, used to regularly attend meetings in the S of France (it was hell), we used to fly Easy from Gatwick, to a. Keep the cost down a bit and b. the flight times were more convenient, return fare about £100, until one day travel request was denied as "all international air travel is banned unless blah blah blah...".
"Can we go by train then?"
"Of course"
6 travel requests for Eurostar/TGV tickets @ £400 each later...we flew!
