Devall Travels

Flights. There are many flights from UK to Malaga every day, almost from dawn to midnight.  After a look at the usual suspects "budget airlines" Easyjet and some others the fares seemed unusually expensive for the time of year. We go early October and there are no children's school holidays to bump up fares so I shopped about. We fly Norwegian out from Gatwick at 0940 and it should arrive about 1330 including the hour time difference..  No, I hadn't in my wildest dreams expected to fly Norwegian from London to Malaga. But the fare was friendly and they claim to have a few extra inches in leg room. Coming back it is British Airways. The problem I always have is that you leave your apartment usually about 1000 and have to think of things to do with a car full of luggage and then rush to the airport for the long queue to check-in and hang about.  So I picked an early afternoon flight back at 1425 which arrives at Gatwick just after 1610.

Once again we are headed for Spain.  Most years we use the timeshare exchange and go to the Costa del Sol.  Last year we had a change and went to La Colina near Torremolinos. We lucked out with a relatively quiet apartment complex with a two bedroom apartment and we didn't need a car. For 2013 we are returning to Torrenueva Park at Mijas Costa.  We have been before a few times with a two bedroom apartment and a sea view.  However, the last time wasn't all that exciting and the apartment was above the reception. This year I emailed and the apartment we have been allocated overlooks the pool area. Fingers crossed.
