re: Here we go- flight changes from balkan have arrived!
A group of 7 of us were suppose to be flying out on the 17th Feb from Edinburgh. I got a letter last week saying that our flight had our departure airport had been changed to Newcastle.
I approached Balkan Holidays for a bit of a discount to cover the extra cost of getting to Newcastle from Edinburgh and the parking charges that we will now have to pay, but they were not interested.
I think its fair to say that they won't be getting my money for the other ski holiday I'm planning for ...

I am not too sure why Balkhan get so much business with tricks like this. They are far from the best organisers in the world and are not the cheapest.
Used them to go to Bankso in 2004 and that was because they were only one of two companies to travel there from the UK.
Although Airtours are not the best either - they changed our outbound flight two weeks before leaving and the inbound on the evening of the return flight.

We've just had our changes too. Tried to book to fly out of Newcastle, told it was full, so booked to fly from Manchester. Now we find we leave 1 h 05 mins earlier, stop off at Newcastle outbound, and arrive at Plovdiv 2 hours later than originally. Inbound we leave almost three hours earler, and return to Manchester via Edinburgh, hitting Manchester at roughly the same time as originally planned. Grrrrrrrrr

Received our tickets this morning for flights from Gatwick on the 22nd. Advised by Balkan that the flights had changed for the third time since we booked. This time was because Bulgaria Air was unable to provide seats. It now seems that we have a special charter using Air Via which leaves Gatwick at 9.15, but returns from Sofia at 05:40 on the 29th. Nice way to end a holiday. Not!!

We were going to Borovets flying to Sophia from Heathrow on 23rd December, they called me yesterday and told me now leaving on 22nd from Gatwick!!!!!!! Luckily we are all able to go 1 day earlier otherwise it could have been a disaster.
