Hi any suggestions for travel to Manchester Airport from Marton, (return) Three people, three bags & a large ski bag & 3 boot bags, unlikely an estate car will do it, needs to be a mini bus? & an idea of costs these days?
 
Highfield Travel have minibus, we used them a couple of years ago. Also try Pegasus Fairways [01253-346609]who are also based in South Shore. Used them many many times. It was they who put me on to Highfield when they were fully booked. As said, cost isn't cheap these days.

Have you thought of going by train, maybe £1 tickets are available.

It's a funny thing this, Forty/fifty years ago when I was in my late teens and twenties something like skiing wasn't even on my radar. Not in a million years. You move on in life and reflect. And yep in hindsight, is skiing something I should have tried and maybe loved[ if I 'd been able to get the hang of it]? Yes I think so. But I'm too old now. So thanks for your kind offer but I think I'll pass. 😉

It's never too late to enjoy the great outdoors, mountains, snow, beer, did I mention beer? 🍻

Oh me and the missus love the great outdoors and walking the world over, but skiing as a new hobby is perhaps pushing it a bit.

My back & hip isn't great, but I must ski, even if it's quite gentle this Yr, I love the mountains, snow, skiing, the whole experience... I can't not go, no matter how much pain I'm in.....

You would have loved at 20s! There’s no comparison to being on the top of a snow covered mountain it’s breathtaking especially in February when the sun is normally out, clear blue skies and still minus degrees. A lot of people go who can’t ski for various reasons just for the scenery, a walk and sit outside the restaurants.
