Looking at flights to Malaga this summer for Mrs. PP and 3 of the kids.

Me and the boy will drive down with all the luggage and save on car hire. Done it for the last couple of years and it does save a bit even with the (Tesco vouchers) Shuttle & diesel.

Ryan Air, Easy jet, Monarch et al seem far from budget these days but having a trawl round, Norwegian air are doing flights from Gatwick - Malaga return for about half the price of the others.

The girls will have one piece of hand luggae between them so just walk on walk off.

Anyone have experience of Norwegian air as I have this impression that it's that cheap for a reason?

Cheers, PP.

Norwegian are much better than Ryanair. Probably like easyjet but with wifi on the aircraft.

I dont know about stuff like extra fees baggage allowances etc but just from being on the aircraft itself, it all was great.

Many thanks.

Baggage should be no issue as I'll have that in the car.

Thanks again.

As you can see nothing stops them being on time, used them to fly Luton to Tromso, March 2010, excellent service efficient staff, should be absolutely fine, only problems could be airtraffic control France/Spain.

MMMMM could have got that that wrong then, maybe Gatwick, but I remember it was really icy here as well, but they got away close to time, and I could not believe this view at Tromso airport for our return,walked out to the plane, 3 massive snow ploughs up the runway, through a giant de icing hoop and off we went, no messing. Obviously you should have no problem with snow at Malaga............ Famous last words.!laugh
