re: Rob Davies- you get booked?

Good good Smile

I'm in two minds what to do about money....iv been told by some friends of mine that the exchange rate over there is far better than it is over here.

And another thing, if your tickets and my tickets both say 15.15, then which are correct? Do they count 15.15 as the time we leave manchester for newcastle, or the time we leave newcastle for sofia?

be just my luck we will miss the plane or something daft!

I'd have thought that it would be the flight time we depart ...

Suppose I can phone to find out!

re: Rob Davies- you get booked?

Sorry to but in on your post(s) but with regards to money, then definitely change out here - you will ALWAYS get a better exchange rate in BG than in the UK. There are plenty of cash-points, alternatively, there are several banks here. Never change money at one of the booths - on the outside, it will say a different rate (which seems better than the banks) you then sign a document and then when you go inside, you get a different rate, so just be careful...

re: Rob Davies- you get booked?

Right,

So if I come with GBP and go to the Banks they will change it no problem?

Thanks Smile

re: Rob Davies- you get booked?

Yep - just make sure the UK notes have no rips or are not defaced (eg: writing on them) - as they can be funny about changing them.

re: Rob Davies- you get booked?

Right,

I'll do that then!!

So good to actually talk to people who live/work and have been there!

Gives people a 'heads-up' about what to expect and such, so you feel you already land on your feet when you get there!

Thanks every so much,

Rob
