Are you suggesting I come across to the dark side, young Star Walker? 
Looks like its about 3 1/2 hours from me, what else is there to see and do around there? As I would bring the wife and shed make a weekend of it. |

Actually just looked at flights to Newquay in March and 39p each way so think I'll do that coz I'm sure there's plenty off all year lessons down there surely.

haha thats exactly what i'm suggesting
round tynemouth itself theres not alot really, theres a small village and ruined proiry which is quite nice but thats about it really. newcastles about a 15min drive and thats pretty good for shopping and eating out and stuff and then about an hour up the coast you get to northumberland which is beautiful castles and coasts galore

Its not really 39p,as once you add on all the surcharges and taxes it all adds up.I hope one day there is a law comes out that shows a true price for those so called cheap flights.

It works out to be £79 for two which I didn't think was to bad.
Soz Star, not asked the other half yet she might plump for the dark side as it will probably work out cheaper to come up north in the shed. You and K going to come and show me how it's done then are ya?

So it wasn't 39p,the true price is £39.50,they should show that price in the first place.
I would rather pay that,than travelling for three and a half hours both way.Its a shame that there are no direct flights to Newquay from Birmingham Int airport at the moment.

There are direct flights from Cardiff everyday if that is anygood and they are pretty cheap. They are with Air Southwest and I have used them loads of times and they are really good.
