Well, nothing is actually 'confirmed' for almost anywhere but France it seems. They'll be in London late August, though, I'm sure.

I'd be surprised if any other city gets more than one show.

As far as going to see a few shows. Best to wait until you see the itinerary and (like me) check to see the airline prices around that time. Especially handy for commuting between shows. I recommend looking up the info on each airport youre considering flying to on wikipedia, as that site gives a list of all the cities from where you can fly into each airport, along with the airline. Its quite helpful because a lot of the search engines for flight offers dont list entries for the low-cost airlines like Easyjet, Ryanair, Air Berlin, Vueling, Wizzair and the like.

and let me be the 1st to give some travel tips;

for cheap flights that get either cancelled or fly
to an entire different country then booked, please check:

I'd recommend Rome. Lots to see & do. Also, I think that show's in the earlier part of summer so it'll be cheaper for Americans...

A double header of Lisbon and Madrid looks affordable from what I can see. Using low cost airlines and if youre flying Monday-Friday. There's a low cost airline in Spain called Vueling (www.vueling.com) which has one way flights between Lisbon and Madrid for thirty quid!!!

You shall.

speakin' of Zeeta, where is that Tyke bollix these days? he hasnt been on here in ages.

Flairville Gazza, excuse the ignorance but which airport would be best to get to El Ejido? Ben.
22nd March 2007 07:43 PM
Gazza El Ejido is in the province of Almeria in Andalucia

I would imagine Almeria would be your nearest airport as El Ejido is quite a small city.

You can fly to Almeria with Easyjet, jet2 etc.

Flairville Thanks for that, I've just realised through a post on IORR that below the presale info on RS.com is a list of all the dates. Busy working on an itinerary now!
