Thomas cook are selling holidays direct to Mauritius from Newcastle for Summer 2005!
Things are definitely looking up for next summer (especially with Thomas Cook). That's Sanford, Domincan Republic & Mauritius. What next????

If it was LPL to MRU then that would finish the place.....:D
Time to set up my new operation - Shellsuit Express . Oooh nasty!

I'd really be surprised to hear this come true. Mauritius have openly said charter airlines are banned from the airline as they target only rich people and not mass tourism.

It may not be direct, but even so. Why advertise from NCL..Who in NCL could afford that sort of money, the bottom has dropped right out of car stereos.
Oops, just pulling your pisser, all those from Tyneside

You might be suprised. I know 3 groups of people who have been to Thailand in the last 3 months, some who've been to Las Vegas, Los Angeles, Cancun etc, and all have to travel to Manchester or route via LHR or AMS... which is a pain!
It will be interesting to see how the Domincan Republic performs.

If any of you know the shop, my aunty actually owns and founded the Tucci and Dixon Sports shops in the North East. She spends half of her life abroad in either South Africa, Italy, America or the Caribbean.

I fail to see what the point of saying that people travel around!?!
Of course they do... Endline flights are via CDG, demand isn't there from NCL...
