experiencing helios to Cyprus
Advantages: enjoyable flight
Disadvantages: nothing
...I have recently come back from a fantastic two weeks in Cyprus...as we all know the worst part about holidays is the travelling..I booked through my local travel agent expecting to travel with the usual airlines...BA,Air 2000 etc..But to my surprise the travel agent found a fair price travelling from Luton to Larnaca with Helios Airways...I was very sceptical and wary of this airline as i have never heard of them but i thought i would try them.
Travel day came...As i boarded the aircraft i was greeted by the steward who was very cheerful and sat in my allocated seat.I noticed that the aircraft was really clean and well presented and surprisingly comfortable.There was an inflight movie,the food was good and the staff very friendly and spoke good English..and there were no delays!...According to the in flight magazine Helios is a fairly...

Fun at thirty thousand feet.
Advantages: Great start to a holiday
Disadvantages: Not going on holiday this year
...I'm not going away this year, this makes me very very sad (aahhhhh) So, in order to keep my spirits up I have to think of holidays past, happier, sunnier days,
and becuase I'm a bit of a saddo, I think 'Aahh, I can write an op on that, so here goes....
In July of 2001 me and the other half set off from the flat with every penny we had for two weeks in Cyprus, travelling with Helios Airways.
Obviously the first day of your holiday can set the tone of the experience. Therefore, if the flight is bad the holiday is tainted (don't even ask about Majorca!!)
We arrived at Birmingham airport one hour before the flight, were checked in quickly by a friendly Australian lady and just had time for a cup of tea and a sandwich before the flight was called. After being herded in by some rather attractive Cypriot hosts we were all set.
I...

Old planes.
Advantages: Cheap flights
Disadvantages: Cold, uncomfortable
...I recently flew to Paphos in Cyprus with Helios Airlines. I have never travelled on such an old aircraft. The first sign that things weren't what they should was when we were told, after a four hour delay, that the plane was late coming because it had to stop to refuel. (This was only from Cyprus, it hadn't flown long haul from Australia or anything like that.) Apparently there were strong head winds.
As we boarded I noticed that the galley was nothing more than a not very brightly lit cupboard. It didn't look too clean either. We found our seats and had to brush sweet papers off them before sitting down. The whole cabin was in a kind of half light. The staff were pleasant and friendly, though.
The plane was so old that the seats were rock hard and didn't recline at all. There was no insulation in the cabin. I sat near the window...

Sit back and enjoy THE WHITE KNUCKLE RIDE
Advantages: Cheap
Disadvantages: Small planes, bad food, no in flight entertainment.
...as the airline does not allow children of two and above to do so. They have to have their own seat. So we then had to go to the Olympic desk and find out if we could book her a seat on the same flight to come home.
The lady there although very helpful couldn't tell us as she didn't have access to that information. We were told that the rep in Cyprus would be able to arrange everything and not to worry. Helios were just being petty.
We then went back to the check in desk. Some of our cases were slightly heavy and it cost £80 for that. Finally we decided that we would go and chance that we would get it sorted out at the other end. This made me very down as I was worrying about what sort of problems we would encounter.
Then it was time to fly! We were placed at the very back of the plane. Yes I know someone has to sit there but we...

decent hotel shame about the food :(
Advantages: overall great hotel
Disadvantages: food was nasty most thetime
...often do pasta though and they always have chips and gravy. they have plenty of fruit and yoghurts and the deserts vary aswell. just dont eat the melons because they always have flies on them. the dining room is pretty big and they used to make you sit on a certain table but they don't anymore, you can sit anywhere available. breakfast is about 8-10, lunch around 12:45-2 and dinner is 7:15-9:45.
overall it was a nice holiday because you can talk to your rep and organise trips out to like mundomar which is a sea life centre and have dolphin and sea lion shows, or theres terra mitica a giant theme park, or you can get the bus around to local shops or the old benidorm town which is really nice and humble :)...

More than just a replacement for Notepad
Advantages: Better than Notepad
Disadvantages: Expensive, if like me, you wouldn't use it that much.
...Notebad, sorry notepad is useful enough for small text files but, let's be honest.......that's about it! Textpad allows very large files to be edited. Its spell checker has dictionaries in 10 languages (absolutely no use to me I'm afraid to admit!). You can automatically word wrap, if that's what turns you on, or be rebellious and decide not to. Also, you can create macros to record up to 16 macros. It also has such things as search/replace, cut/paste, good toolbar, placing bookmarks on text, built in file manager, and tons of things that mean nothing to me (DDE interface, OLE2, CUA compliant keyboard commands, 16 bit Unicode.......it's all double dutch to me!). This is another shareware application meaning that you should pay the author £17 if you find it useful. Personally, whilst I appreciate this is way more powerful than...

X Marks the Spot
Advantages: It's still there
Disadvantages: But you can't see it any more.
...(Morgenhund set me this mystery challege. I think he'll know what this is, so I expect him to pick up every clue. Don't give it away yet, though, Mike.)
When Caesar?s legions flags unfurl?d
Then, like him, I bestrode the world.
But that is not my place in Rome;
Farther away I had my home.
Now I?m below a wine-dark sea.
Where are the six who were with me ?
?Twas Helios who brought me low.
Ne, ta Elinika milo !
(Extra clues)
As I am sure that you?re aware
It?s centuries since I was there.
A famous play by English Will
Holds a good clue. And well known still
Is Homer?s comment on my sea.
Rome ? Just one word might lead to me.
But come to seek me anyway;
And have a splendid holiday !...
