I will write a review. It will be something different.

Warm regards Julie

Look forward to meeting you all on the 27th May.

I think you get different advise from different nurses. Mine never mentioned malaria. I was looking on internet re information on Namibia and it said that the mosquito risk at the time when we are going is very low. Not sure who to believe! I will just make sure I don't get bitten!

I always get bitten to death, so if it was me better to be safe than sorry...

I'm going to Namibia in May & went to get my vaccinations yesterday. Very interested on the malaria prophylaxis discussion that's been going on in this thread. My own opinion is that even low risk is not worth taking a chance on & unless you are unable to take the tablets for medical reasons I would get the tablets.

Anyway whilst I hope we get to see a variety of Namibian wildlife, hopefully Mosquitos will be on the missing list.....

So pleased to hear you are coming to Namibia. Fingers crossed for some better wildlife sightings than our attempts at Polar Bears!

See you in nine weeks.

So four weeks today, we'll be there. Is anyone else getting frustrated at how slow time seems to be passing........!

Hi Sally,

I'm not frustrated, but excited, the time seems to be flying by! Really looking forward to meeting up with everyone and experiencing what looks to be an amazing holiday.

Pauline

Hope your hospital appointment goes well. Just received a text message from Just You saying that my travel documents have been dispatched. Can't wait to receive them within the next couple of days. Can't believe the date of travel is almost here. I was the first one to book as soon as the new brochure came out last year! Time has certainly flown by.

Jaya

Best wishes,

Bob

I am sure that by now you too would have received all the travel documents. There is also a pass for the lounge so it will be great to meet up with fellow travellers in the lounge if not before. Days are flying by and not really long to go now. Good job I am very busy at work at the moment to get too excited!!

See you and all the others on the trip soon.

Jaya

I have indeed received my travel documents - I have been given the same flight reference number for the whole tour (usually when I have connecting flights I've been given two different codes) so I questioned this with JY. They've reassured me that it's been booked as a through booking and I can check my luggage the whole way through from Belfast to Windhoek. This is great, but I'm a bit worried my luggage might go astray as this involves three flights and two changes of terminal!

Julia, do you have any reassurance for me on this one?? Or anyone else for that matter?

Looking forward to seeing you all in the executive lounge,

Bob

I have spoken to my colleague and she has confirmed that all your flights are on one ticket so there is only one reference number - this isn't uncommon.

When there are connecting flights on a journey, I suggest (and this something that I have done myself for peace of mind) that when you check-in just check that your boarding passes are for all of your flights and that the tags the agent puts on your luggage match your final destination.

I hope you have a wonderful trip.

Kindest regards,

Julia

Best wishes,

Bob

For those who read through the review of the Febuary trip and were looking forward to the meal at the Wreck restaurant unfortunately it has had to close but I'm sure an equally good alternative will be found.

Just two weeks to go, I had a slight delay on my currency but I should be getting it this week then I think I'm ready to go. Is it natural to spend every waking moment thinking of your upcoming holiday........?!

I did Saigon-Kuala Lumpa-Heathrow- Manchester both ways on one reference with no trouble. Only saw bags at start and finish.

Regards,

Roger
