When I phoned Thomas Cook a while back, they said you couldn't say fly out on a Tuesday and come back on a Friday, it was Friday to Friday, or Tuesday to Tuesday. Have they now changed this then?

For anyone living in Ireland I have found an alternative to flying via Gatwick.
Dublin to Frankfurt - Lufthansa
Frankfurt to Hurghada - Condor
Condor fly on mondays and thursdays and I have discovered if you go on a thurs the flight leaves at 1405, so on overnight stay. On the way back, if you come back on a Monday, the flight lands at 1705 and there is a flight to dublin at 2125 so once again no overnight stay.
Prices do vary a lot, here are some of the best deals I have found so far:
03 apr - 21 apr for £378 each
24 jul - 04 aug for £440 each
24 jul to 11 aug for £455 each
Hope this helps

Hello everyone.
To tell you the truth, prices you are talking about
are just terrible. I hope my recent 'discoveries'
will help you buy something much cheaper.
The general conclusion is that it IS possible to
buy two tickets to Egypt, to and fro, for less
than 200 British pounds. How is it possible?
easyJet.com - book cheap flights, hotels and car hire online
Thanks for Queenie.
A good connection between Sharm and London,
sometimes at very reasonable prices.
https://www.tuifly.com/en/offers/tiefstpreise.jsp
Here you can find VERY good flights between
Cairo and Germany. Sometimes very cheap.
Thomsonfly.com - The low fares airline. From 20 UK airports to over 80 destinations - Farefinder
Also good offers. Flights between Sharm and
England. Moreover, there is also a possibility to
buy a very cheap ticket from Israel to England.
Some people may prefer to fly from Israel.
Let us hope budget airlines will also get
interested in Egypt.

Anyone who lives in Ireland (North or South) are completely stuck because we have to fly to one of the mainland airports first, try and get the flight times to tie in and then fly on to hurghada. The connecting flight can cost anything up to £100 each!!!!
The prices I quoted might seem expensive to someone who lives near either Manchester or Gatwick but it's not for us, as we can get good connecting flights in the german airports and not spend hours on end in the airport (as we had to last time in gatwick).
Hopefully this will change in the near future but at the moment you can only fly from Dublin to Sharm on a package deal.
