tragic plane crash.. its a good thing the pilot knew what he was doing and saved lives by not panicing and losing complete control.

that kind of thing would put me off flying forever.

I'm not so sure palio, I think the pilots were no more than passengers themselves.

I have lost confidence in Turkish Airlines and Turkish Pilots. To be honest my next trip to Cyprus will probably be to Larnaca by BA.

Strangely enough I'm planning a trip to Cyprus on 20th March , BA by far the best price right now !
My favourite is Cyprus airways but for some strange reason on this occasion prices are about £80.00 more than BA . I'm paying for 4 so total is £320 more !!

Hello my dear friend, I wish I could fly at the same time with you. I'm off to New York on Wednesday to see my just born grandson. I was supposed to go on the 21st of march for the birth on the 24Th. Trust my daughter to go into labour and give birth an hour ago.

Still, mum and baby doing well and the earliest I could go was Wednesday.

I hope to see you soon Miltiades.

I want to drive to Cy. I do wish they would reinstate the Piraeus - Lim ferry.

That also appeals to me. I wish the old Yugoslavia was safe to travel through :(

Hi MR from ng

If you are flying to New York, it may be cheaper from Cyprus! I was quoted, Larnaca - New York, return on BA, €44 + taxes :-)
Cheaper than a taxi from home to Paphos airport (nearly!).
