LHR mystery tour
Hello
Very unimportant post but I wonder if anyone can suggest an answer.
A friend of mine is taking us on a mystery stag weekend. All we know is that we meet at LHR @ 0800 on 22/6. We return to LGW sometime on the 25/6.
Any ideas where? Favourite so far is Las Vegas, but I know that you can't go there direct from LHR. But I suppose we may change flights. And it seems bizarre we'd leave Vegas on a Saturday evening. Any guesses...?

as stated by other posters, its could be anywhere. but to keep your dreams of vegas alive, i have been with AA outward LGW via dallas and back to LHR via boston, so you may be lucky. its often cheaper to go to vegas if you dont stay a saturday night, as a lot of the rooms are booked by californians out for the weekend.

Given the timing of your days, I would guess that you might be going long haul east, by which you would get both Friday and Saturday nights, before crawling back onto the plane for return Sunday on a day flight. Not sure about leaving from LHR and arriving back at LGW though...
Let us know where it was!

Too mean to buy a long personal title
Presumably this is likely to be flying there and back on the same airline, to a destination served by that airline from both LHR and LGW.
BA to Amsterdam is what comes immediately to mind.

There are more of these than I thought (including codeshares, which count for the purpose of this guessing game). From the BA website (the number is the LHR terminal):-
And that's just BA. However, to do the exercise properly, I suppose that you'd also have to list all the destinations to which you can fly from both LHR and LGW on carriers that will sell cheap one-ways, to allow for the possibility that the trip has been built on two one-way tickets on different airlines.
Given that many of these places are pretty standard fare for stag weekends, I suppose the short answer for the OP is "I haven't got a clue!"
Aberdeen - 1
Amsterdam - 4
Athens - 1
Barcelona - 1 or 2
Brussels - 4
Budapest - 1
Dublin - 1
Edinburgh - 1
Geneva - 4
Gibraltar - 1
Glasgow - 1
Houston - 4
Kiev - 1
Madrid - 1 or 2
Malaga - 1
Manchester - 1
Marrakech - 1
Newcastle - 1
Nice - 1
Prague - 1
Rome - Fiumicino - 1
Seville - 2
Zurich - 4
On this hypothesis, one could discount DUB because you can't buy a LON-originating ticket on the EI flights concerned.Amsterdam - 4
