Leaving Manchester airport for Pisa on 5th June. Wondered if anyone else is booked on the Tuscany holiday and flying from Manchester. Newbie at travelling alone so a bit apprehensive. I would appreciate any contact prior to Sunday.

Me too, but unfortunately I'm doing the same trip but leaving on 23 June, hope you have a lovely time.

Hi Maureen G,

Welcome to Just You!

Once you'll get to the airport all your apprehension will disappear, I promise :)

There are 19 people on your holiday, 6 of which will travel from Manchester airport.

In true Just You style, there’s a rep at every UK airport for each and every one of our departures – regardless of number of people travelling. They will help you checking in and answer any airport related question you may have.

Make sure you have your luggage tag well displayed and keep your eyes peeled as they may be busy with some of your fellow travelling companions.

I wish you the most fabulous time and please let us have your thoughts when you come back.

Kindest regards,

Elisa

Just returned from Forte die Marmi in Tuscany and it was my first time abroad on my own. Fortunately I was not nervous and if I had a question I asked some of the airport staff. Didn't know whether it was check in A or B - it was B and there was no Just You representative at check in or anywhere else. Didn't know the other the people on the holiday apparently 6 and only met up with them in Pisa where a just you excursion manager was there to meet us. Not what it says in the brochure but I managed to enjoy the holiday.

Dear Maureen,

Many thanks for your feedback and apologies for the inconveniences you experienced at the airport.

I can confirm that there was a rep on this flight and was present at the check-in area B lower level (jet 2.com) clearly holding a Just you clipboard. They monitored the queues as efficiently as possible, Jet2.com have two entrances one from level 5 (A) and the other entrance from the lower level (B) off Tower Road. Both these entrances have separate check-in queues which passengers are directed too by Jet 2 staff so it’s difficult if they are in one area looking for passengers and they are in the other queue, and if the rep is talking to passengers in the other queue.

They stayed until flight closure at the check-in desk until 09.00am as they had a no show on the flight.

I truly hope you enjoyed the rest of your holiday, we'd love to hear it all about it.

Kind regards,

Elisa

Yes I did enjoy the holiday it was just unfortunate that I didn't meet up with fellow travellers during the 2 hour wait but your explanation is understandable. This experience has given me more confidence to try another holiday next year. I think my apprehension was not knowing the other people on the trip but once the ice was broken I thoroughly enjoyed the experience. My name is Julia not Maureen as I think she has yet to go on holiday.
