Have just booked for this tour, little nervous. I see that you are flying from Manchester, so am I - will see you there.

Regards, Audrey

I have just received confirmaion of my booking and see that our flight is 12.30 from Manchester and it will take 17 hours by the time we reach San Francisco as there is a 2 hour wait in Atlanta.

Nearer the date I will let you know what time I will arrive at the airport and maybe we could meet up in the lounge and get something to eat.

My journey to the airport should only take between 45 mins to 1 hour depending on traffic. How far do you have to travel?

See you on 15th

Regards,

Audrey

Now received final info, have you? According to our Lounge pass it looks as though there will be 10 of us travelling from Manchester. I will be travelling from the Wirral, how far do you have to travel? I am thinking of getting to Manchester about 9.00 - 9.30 have you made plans yet? Audrey.

I'm not sure what time I will be getting there, knowing me I'll want to be there early but I'm coming from Aberystwyth. Now I know what time you'll be there I'll try getting there the same time. Anyway if you want my mobile number email me direct on ***

then I can ring you to meet up at the airport. Julia

Editor's note: I'm not allowed to publish personal information such as email addresses and mobile phone numbers but I'll be happy to pass them on privately if requested.

Thanks, Audrey.

Are you travelling down to Manchester or Heathrow? Audrey.

Rookie question - I want to take a bottle of whisky (as a gift for my pal in LA!) - can I pack this in my suitcase/hold luggage? Will I have to declare this when I reach the States? Restrictions are so strict these days so I think it's prudent to check.

I dont think you need to say anything about one bottle of scotch if you they are more likley to think that you have other things to hide but it will have to go in the hold not hand baggage Robin
