Fly in Comfort - with our exclusive bmi scheduled service aircraft from Heathrow & Manchester
Our exclusive scheduled configured bmi aircraft are usually utilised for long or mid-haul flights. They provide what is undoubtedly the most comfortable experience together with the most convenient timings available to our featured regions.
These special aircraft have also allowed us to provide the only direct full Business Class Service to the coast of Turkey - a service we are delighted to announce is now improved even further for 2010 by the exclusive use of the private CIP terminal at Dalaman!
The aim with our bmi aircraft is to provide a travel experience that differs somewhat from what sadly has become the industry standard. Of course a flight is still a flight, however we hope that the measures we and our colleagues at bmi have put in place will allow our guests to enjoy an altogether improved experience.

Gatwick: Monarch Airlines Charter Service
Our Gatwick charter service provides an alternative choice to our exclusive Heathrow bmi scheduled service aircraft. In order to provide this alternative, we have taken an allocation of seats on this charter aircraft.
Please note: We have chosen Monarch as they have an excellent reputation with special regard to on-time performance. However, we would stress this is a charter flight and we would suggest that guests wishing to experience the full Exclusive Escapes service from the outset should elect to fly from Heathrow.

Flexible Flights from any airport on any day - Flexible Durations & Accommodation Only
We recognise that guests may sometimes prefer to travel for durations other than the traditional 7 or 14 nights, on departure days other than those of our own Saturday flights (from Heathrow, Manchester or Gatwick), from differing airports around the world or perhaps simply require a rate for accommodation only.
Marginally, the most cost effective way to enjoy our holidays is to utilise our own flights, however we are more than happy to provide stays of differing durations with or without flights.
Our Flexible Holidays formulae can be applied to these holidays without flight deductions or transfer additions.
