Re: Faro Airport

But is the position still the same that you can't pay until 3 days after use meaning it is impossible for anyone returning home?

Re: Faro Airport

Since the motorway toll was introduced there must have been hundreds of people who used the motorway on their way home who could not and did not pay the toll to Faro airport - I have never heard of anyone in a hire car being chased for that unpaid toll - has anybody heard of such a follow up ?

Re: Luggage in cars

If your flight eta is 9-00 am and is on time then you won't arrive in CVO until 11 am at the very earliest so only 1 hour max to kill at the worst. Go to the back of Rocha Brava where you should be able to park right outside the row of shops and restaurants which include Helder's Bar Tropicana and A...

Re: Baby has drowned in Q.D.P.

So sad :(
I just came back after a week with my grandsons aged 2 and 4 - they were never out of our sight.
But what about the incident in Disneyworld with the alligator ? Frightening :shock:

Re: Monte Dourado or Rocha Brava

I have no knowledge of Monte Dourado but I did own a property on RB and still go there to my friend's places. I can only give RB the highest recommendation and it is an ideal place for a first purchase in the Algarve

New Easy Jet self serve check in

I flew to Faro last week from Gatwick North and found the new Easy Jet self serve check in so much better than the old system. Lots of check in screens and very user friendly resulting in short queues . :)

I think Car voh whey rrro but run the syllables into one another quite smoothly (i.e. without gaps).

How do you pronounce 3 r's ? Is it like a drum roll ? :wink: :lol:

Re: Damage in a holiday home by tourists

You are right Rampage and I've changed my opinion - a cover does make total sense if you have a heated pool - but I would only have it for my private use.

Re: Damage in a holiday home by tourists

. Am also interested in your experience with the pool cover as we have a pool that can be heated but we have no cover, mainly because of the concern about it not being looked after correctly by rental guests. Our rationale has been that the cost of replacing it or getting it mended would be more th...

Re: Damage in a holiday home by tourists

There are a few lessons to be learned here which I know from experience. 1 ) Always find out the exact composition of the party and price the security deposit according to the risk and the values of your contents. Do not provide high cost items if renting frequently. 2) Never leave the pool cover ou...

Re: Where to go on holiday

I remember the Americans didn't give a hoot when we stood alone in world war 2 why they're concerned whether or not we leave Europe baffles me. :roll: I think that deep down the Americans don't really understand or trust the Europeans so they want us in the EU to protect the interests of the USA :w...

Re: Where to go on holiday

My beef with the Americans and Obama butting in is that they are only interested in themselves and are trying to sway opinion in our country in order to serve their best interests and not ours! Can you imagine them ever entering a Federal block with say the Central American countries ? Or for our PM...
