Tenerife Flights - my thoughts
For many people, money is a real issue, so it is worth going for the cheapest flight available. If you want to fork out a bit more, however, you could do worse than go for a scheduled Tenerife flight. For some reason, these tend to be a slightly higher quality than charter (therefore costing a bit more). My partner and I always use a Monarch (ZB) scheduled flight, departing and returning at the same day and time, on all our sojourns to the Canarian isle. Before the credit crunch kicked in, these flights had nice little touches, such as a complementary newspaper as you board and meals included in the price (with a choice of menu). These days, however, there is no paper and you pay for your meal on board (still with the choice). If you don’t want a full meal, you can just have a snack, or nothing at all. Seats are bookable in advance, as is extra legroom, both for a fee. If you book your actual seat, you can then do an online check-in, which saves time at the airport. Our local airport is Manchester and, the last time we used it, we discovered something you may not be aware about. You know those little plastic bags they give you in which to place cigarette lighters, perfume bottles and anything else containing liquid? Now, there’s a machine issuing them and you have to put in £1! For this you get a small capsule containing two of them - 50p for a tiny plastic bag! I suggest you save these to reuse on future flights. In the case of Tenerife, I would strongly advise smokers not to purchase cigarettes either in the departure airport or on the plane. They can be found much cheaper in Tenerife supermarkets. Drinks are cheap, too. Regarding spending money, I usually take cash and change it as I need it at one of the many money exchange places dotted about all over the place. Another money option is to apply for the Fair FX currency exchange card, which gives you far better rates than other places, such as the Post Office or Travelex.
