I went to London for a shopping day trip 2 months ago. Flew from Dublin to Gatwick and then got train into the city which only took 20 mins. Was in London city for approx 9am and didn't fly home until approx 8pm. Was great day out, only paid 10 euro, would definitely do it again!
There are flights home at 18.00 or 20.55, back in DUB by 18.35 or 21.30..... agreat day out for about €100 a head return, plus lunch. Do it !
Me thinks it takes more than 35 Minutes to fly to amsterdam...
Or does it only seem quicker when you're coming back...
Brussels works as a day trip even with Ryanair to Charleroi. Unless they've changed their schedule there's a flight out at around 8am and back at about 6. Nice Christmas Market too.
I do the London thing fairly frequently into Gatwick, catch an afternoon show and last flight home at 9 allows for dinner before heading to the airport.
The only them i dont like about Gatwick is the mad rush for the plane around 8.35pm for 8.45pm flight, as everyone is kept in shopping area till gate comes up on the board and when it arrives on the board you have a full plane of people making a dash for the gate at same time.
But there's an 8.45 flight and a 9pm flight. I always take the second one, much less hassle for the sake of a few minutes!
