So folks - whats the least anyone's ever paid to fly to dam from a Uk airport? I wanna go when my divorce is through and I get my settlement, and I'd like to treat a good mate of mine whos helped me through the hard times. I'd ideally like to fly from Birmingham, and Ive heard BMI baby are the absolute cheapest around?

shop around bro....youl find cheaper flights the earlier ya book em too....by quite a bit iv found in past.

good luck n enjoy....sure ur mate will love it.

£10 return

basically was someone elses ticket & i just had to change the name to mine at the desk for a grand total of the above, went out for a few beers on thursday & ended up in the dam till sunday

e2a - sorry m8 thats no help at all

I've recently come back from the Dam,The cheapest i found was £100 return using BMI Baby from Birmingham airport for a 3 day break.You can knock £15 off this though if you only take hand luggage.

Well I reckon you can stuff all the clobber you need for a weekend in a sports holdall or summat, so hand luggage it is!

Was gonna go to latvia or summat and fire ak47s, have lapdances from icicle eyed blondes, drink ace beer for a quid a pint and everything, but it's amsterdam...it always wins!

+1 I'm off to the cup in November and bmi baby was < £90 from East Midlands, easily cheapest, although they try and add allsorts on i.e. luggage, choosing seats, normal checkin etc

jus booked my tix £50 return with easysket

I'd suggest getting a ferry over.
Cheaper than airfare, customs are more lax.
Takes longer but it's safer in my opinion.

Newcastle -> Amsterdam is about £40 return.

e2a: I'd shy away from the cup, in my experience weed prices actually rise for it.

Air fares are VERY seasonal. Going virtually anywhere during the school holidays will be expensive. For cheap flights go about November time. I once flew back to the UK a few days before Xmas - it was dead cheap and the plane was 2/3 empty - all you Christmas sun seeking Brits were coming this way.
And you will never get anything really cheap from Gatwick or Heathrow. Fly from Stansted or somewhere else dead awkward to get to.

i just got the euro train from folkstone to pas do calais for 70 quid with the bike & tanked up 2 times to do 300km
so 60euros return to pas de calais,about 130 all in.

Safer for "accidentally" bringing something back and not getting caught?

Or safer in that by going by ferry there is no chance of plummeting out of the sky in a fireball to your death?


My mate never goes by plane as he is terrified of flying. . But he also always brings back more than he would dare to than if he were to fly.



2 times due to winning competitions, I've gone over for free, but the cheapest I've payed was £80 return when easyjet first started doing cheap offers.

I suggest TELETEXY HOLIDYS website, is by far one of the cheapest foe last minutes too.

looking at around 160pp flights + hotel at moment, can book either individually too tho... take a look!

click the city breaks part

think we are goin the week b4 xmas from leeds . if u go mid week its £43.00 ret its 99p each way and the rest is taxs .

I got a return flight from Bristol airport for £5 return but airport tax bumped it up to about £70 all in after searching the internet.

Dont forget to print your maps!!! http://www.coffeeshop.freeuk.com/Map.html

P.s dont forget to go to the Soup Kitchen. Best soup ever tasted!!!

For the price of weed in Dam these days and the shite euro, you're better off growing your own....

e.g. £10-15 a gram for mediocre weed just isn't worth it....even for the good stuff like LA Con or a decent SSH.

So, even if the flight is cheap everything else will be in euros and cost the earth. It's fine for other Europeans who are already screwed by the euro, but we get super screwed these days.

Grow your own and find a blowjob locally

The Euro is strong, the pound has been shite - hence a weak pound won´t buy so many Euros. But the pound has slowly improved from the bottom of the pit.

Goodtimes will you stop posting that about soup and maps in every bleedin thread in this section?

the soup IS good, though

well mate
many moon's ago
when i was hitching around
i was leaving the dam to come back to scotland
i went up to the bus park to the side of central train station
looked around for a coach from my neck of the woods
seen one in a few min's ...asked the coach park attendant where the driver was
he said he was in the pub over there, which had me worried , driver in the pub?...
so in went over to see, and he was drinking coffee not booze
which was a bit more like it....;
so sat down , got chatting, plenty of seats on the bus
one for me i ask ? in a cheeky way, but hey it always works for me and it did again
sure mate be leaving in a hour he said
sorted i said
i was only looking for a lift to the boat and got a lift to about 1 mile from my home
door to door nearly
so being the generous scotsman i gave him a tenner for his troubles

if you want to get to the dam the cheapest way
get your kilt on and get your thumb out
