Firstly its not a lot of £ to be changing in that a rate change would have to be quite a bit to make any significant ouch or yippee situation.

As others have said book airport parking, pay for the lounge but branded clothes from M&M direct etc you'll save vastly more.


Or if you are happy with it as it is go for it - but clearly you are aware we have a general election there could be fall out from Greece/contagion all of which could change things drastically.
We always go all inc so spending money is kind of irrelevant

I'm going in August. Taking our mountain bikes in the back as we enjoy a bit of a ride round as well. Amazing what you can get in the back of a GTi. Take them to bits and they both fit in pretty well, all below the parcel shelf level. Do have to fold the back seats down though.
