Hi Sandy,

As you may have seen from the other thread, those flying from London will be using Gatwick. Our customers booked on this tour will be advised regarding this matter.

At the moment our optional excursions are not on sale yet as we have not had costs from our agent - these are usually set a few months before departure. To give you a rough idea of prices, we can share last year's prices with you:

Krka National Park and Bibich Winery (2015) - £79.00

Makarska (2015) - £37.00

It is likely that these prices will increase as we need to take into consideration certain fees, which I am sure you can understand.

Kindest regards,

Monty

Thanks Monty,

For this reply and all the others regarding this trip, flights etc.

Any price information helps to budget and actually the prices could be slightly lower given the favourable movement of the exchange rate between the euro and the pound.

Sandy.

Hi Caroline,

At the moment, the plans are that we will fly from Manchester and Heathrow for this tour in 2016.

Kindest regards,

The Manchester flights with Thomson actually show them leaving at 6.00a.m. and arriving in Split at 9.40a.m.

There's another thread running about whether direct Heathrow flights on Fridays are available, but as they seem not to be and the best solution is a direct flight from Gatwick arriving in Split at 7.45p.m., does that mean anyone traveling from Manchester will have to wait 10 hours at the airport for the rest of the party to arrive? (This thread for the Heathrow issue "Makarska Riviera")

On a separate question, do JY have any indication (always subject to confirmation/change...) of the cost of the excursions:

- full day to Krka National Park and the Winery

- half day to Makarska

From the websites the Park is about £10, the Winery £32; I'm guessing minus group discounts, plus some travel costs. Makarska just travel?

I'm interested in this holiday too. I hoped to do it this year but was told I could only fly from Gatwick which is no good for me. Will there definitely still be flights from Manchester or Heathrow for this date as I can get to either airport. I've never been to Croatia before so would love to do this holiday.

Caroline

I hope so Caroline as I am hoping to do the 20th May next year which is currently showing a Manchester departure.

Could you please let me know if the flights from Manchester and Heathrow will be operating for this departure in 2016?

Thanks

Caroline
