I'm Sue and this is my first time travelling alone. Very scary and brave at the same time. I should love to know if anyone else is going to the Grand Canyon in Feb 09. Has anyone already been and could tell me what they thought? Look forward to hearing from you.

Dont worry about it being your first time on your own, you will not be the only one who is a first timer, you will be well looked after.I have just done my 4th trip & I still feel nervous, what I found helpfull this time was going to the Pre-tour get together. You will know some people right at the start & it won't seem so daunting. Have fun.

Regards Sheila

I have booked the parks and canyons tour for Sept 09 and am a first time traveller with JY and flying from MAN....are you still thinking of going??

I have booked for the Parks & Canyons holiday in Sept 09 and I am also travelling from Man.

I am holidaying on my own for the first time so it's good to know somebody is flying from Man.besides myself. See you in the exec. lounge.

nice to hear from you, glad i am not the only one flying from MAN, see you in the lounge, you are flying AA right?

I am flying with AA. Looking forward to the holiday but I can't say I'm looking forward to the long flight & jet lag. Never been to america or for that out of europe before so it's a first for me. Hope the exchange rate improves,I don't know whether to buy now or later, it's all a gamble.

Long haul is really fun and you honestly forget you are up there after a while. You will almost definately have lots of films to watch and you can listen to music as well. I love the films myself and I think I watched 4 last time I went to Chicago. Excessive yes but being a nervous flier I had to distract myself as my friend pointed out all the ice caps we were going over below. You are asked all the time for refreshments and you generally get a pillow, blanket and hand cloth to refresh yourself as well. They do really look after you up there, so I am sure the experience will be fun. I am going on the trip on the 17th Sept, so wish you a happy and enjoyable flight. Despite being nervous, I very much enjoy the flights now as part of the whole experience. I am sure this will be start of many trips for you, as once you start, you really can’t stop. Maybe around the world for you next time!. Have a wonderful time, Harrison

You are travelling with a pro, i fly to canada quite a bit, like harrison says you forget about time once you set off and there is so much to keep you busy, I wear flight sock on long journey, to stop my legs swelling, we could always prebook our seats to sit near each other if you want?? We also have Lynn joining us in MAN and maybe John??

you will be fine

deb

I've now got three names to be looking out for at Manchester Airport for this holiday on 8th September. Deb, George and John. This is my fourth holiday with Just You, but I still get a little apprehensive at the thought of going it alone. However, I will now look forward to meeting you all at the airport.

Best wishes

Is anyone on this trip flying from Heathrow? It would be nice to hear from you.

Thanks.

I have only just found this part of the site! I too am going on this tour from Heathrow so look forward to meeting you. I haven't been with JY before nor have I been to America so looking forward to that too
