Sadly I’ve just been offered a fantastic new job so I had to decline…maybe one day though when I’m sick of office work and want a new challenge!

Review of GB Airways

Review of GB Airways

GB Airways is a company set up in Gibraltar which controls most flights between England to South Spain and North Africa. GB Airways is a franchise from British Airways so everything is of their standards. The meals where slightly poor on the morning flights but the return meals in the afternoons where a lot better than expected!. I take regualr flights between Gatwick and Gibraltar. I have never ever been late on arrival, only slight delays on take-off. ...
...into many regardless of space!. However, GB Airways is the only company with high reputation that flies to Gibraltar but so if it's quality you're looking for, GB Airlines is the one to choose. However if it's price, then Monarch Airlines offers a cheaper flight and from Luton Airport!. ...
