Monarch backs Lanzarote for a right royal Christmas

The family holiday appeal of Lanzarote is helping it to fight back in the face of the world recession. Monarch Airlines have had to respond to public demand by increasing flights for school holiday half term and the fast approaching Christmas holiday period.

Sands Beach Resort Hotel in Costa Teguise is always ready to receive extra families, with its wide choice of apartments and villas, it can be flexible no matter what size group. The six pools, beachfront sea water lagoon and dedicated programme of family entertainment will ensure that everyone has a good time.

A half term rush meant that Monarch needed to add extra Thursday flights from Gatwick throughout October. Christmas looks like being an even busier time, so Monarch have pulled all the stops out to be ready for the rush. Extra flights will be available through the festive season from Gatwick, Birmingham and Manchester. Monarch Airlines Liz Savage announced the good news. “With 64 additional flights being added into the flying programme, offering in excess of 12,000 further seats, getting away for Christmas has never been easier”.

 

 

Lucy lives the Rockstar life in Sands Beach Resort Hotel

What a great place for a school reunion, we threw down the challenge to make a You Tube video that sums up the sun, fun and relaxation of a holiday at Sands Beach Resort Hotel and Lucy Pryor accepted it with a glint in her eye and a song in her heart.

Lucy and 9 former school friends from Surrey, now at different Universities, came together again for a weeks holiday in June and they were inspired by the sun, the beachfront and the bars of Costa Teguise and in particular one special song. Rockstar by Nickelback struck a chord with them so they set about recording their own tribute to the fun video and they certainly left no corner of Sands Beach Resort Hotel untouched by their musical antics.

Back at Nottingham Trent University, where she is studying graphic design, Lucy indulged in her hobby of film editing to pull all the clips together to make the video you can see at http://ie.youtube.com/watch?v=nLFKuPJxwaQ or through our direct front page link. She then entered it in our competition to win a FREE weeks holiday in 2009 and flights for 2 people and half board accommodation, by uploading the video to You Tube and sending us a link. The result is very impressive, take a bow Lucy and her happy cast of Joanne, Ellie, the other Lucy, Tavani, Chloe, Olivia, Anna, Nicola and Tom. 

It’s a tough act to follow but you have until the end of 2008 to get your entry in. Good luck.
