France trip in September

[mlocke]

Has anyone going to france in september received notification a change in flight out??

I think this has been changed from Sunday to Monday

[Andrew G]

Not received anything.

Originally this is the information that I received on my flight confirmation email from Ryanair:

GOING OUT
From London Stansted(STN) to Grenoble(GNB) [color=blue]Sun[/color], 23Sep07 Flight FR2132 Depart STN at 10:10 and arrive GNB at 12:55

COMING BACK
From Grenoble(GNB) to London Stansted(STN) Sun, 30Sep07 Flight FR2133 Depart GNB at 13:20 and arrive STN at 14:30

I have received an email yesterday advising me of a change so now it is:

Your new flight details are as follows:

GOING OUTFrom London Stansted(STN) to Grenoble(GNB) [color=blue]Mon[/color], 24/09/2007 Flight 2132 Depart STN at 1010 and arrive GNB at 1255


COMING BACK
From Grenoble(GNB) to London Stansted(STN) Sun, 30/09/2007 Flight 2133 Depart GNB at 1320 and arrive STN at 1410

As when you booked yours you said there was just one flight each day I would assume that yours has changed also?? I need to confirm if I want to accept these changes so I will wait till a couple of people have checked to see if they have received the same.

Ryan Air have done this to me in the past. They had overbooked the flight.
I called them and told them that by changing my flights i would not be able to attend the "meeting" that my holiday was booked around. I was put back on the flight and I guess some other, less stroppy holiday maker was moved off.

It's worth a try to get the extra days holiday

I got the same message - I'll try calling them today to see if they can re-instate us

I have just spokent to Christina @ Ryanair and we have all been changed, i gave the names of all of us going and she confirmed this.

The flight has been cancelled.

She told me we could change it to 7 days either side and there are spaces available on the Saturday flight. Has everyoen been offered the flight on the monday?

I think if we have to change it I would prefer the Saturday but obviously I will go along with the rest of the group.

[huw williams]

I think we're going to have to make it Monday - King of the mountains hotel is partially booked on the saturday so we wouldn't have enough rooms

Is everyone OK with this?

[mlocke]

Monday is fine with me

[Andrew G]

Monday's okay - (sent PM Huw).

[mrP(Boonen)VT]

Don't mind as long as we're all the same.

[huw williams]

OK - That's confirmed - we'll go on the monday flight.

Can everyone onfirm with Ryanair that they've had their details changed either by going onto the website or calling them with your booking reference number.

1 less day in France but at least we get a full weekend's riding at home. Recover on Monday whilst travelling then ride the Marmotte course on Tuesday

Did I mention riding the Marmotte course?

[mrP(Boonen)VT]

You bugger

[mlocke]

Scuze my ignorance but whats the Marmotte course?

[mlocke]

I wish I hadn't but I just googled it ....

"The 174km event starts in Bourg d’Oisans and climbs the Col de la Croix Fer, Col du Telegraphe, Col du Galibier before returning to Bourg d’Oisans and finishes up the 21 hairpin bend climb to the ski station of L’Alpe d’Huez"

[Andrew G]

Don't worry we've got all week to ride it. Huw never mentioned doing it all in one day.
