A friend used them for a flight to Egypt and said they were fine - typical "no frills" airline

Thanks for that just looking at flights for August 2011 and Travel Republic have some good deals via Viking...as there are seven of us I need to book early.

Misty, be careful booking early with TR. They sold us flights last year that hadn't been scheduled (booked in June 09 for May/June 10). After a change from afternoon flight on Pegasus to evening flight on Viking, it ended up eventually being cancelled and they took 2 months to give us our money back. Pegasus told us it had never been scheduled for the times given to us by TR and we ended up having to be a lot more because we were booking late and our break took in half term >:( >:( >:(

Misty,
 
I don't know if this will help but Monarch have released their scheduled flights for summer 2011 and are now flying to Turkey.

I booked this weekend and we got a good deal from Luton flying next May for £174 each including 20kg of luggage.

We used the Sunsale offer to get the price that we paid. Don't forget to type it into the relevant box to redeem the saving  ;)

Misty,

You are welcome.
 
The offer only applies to Monarch's scheduled flights, not their charters. The drop down menu on their web-site shows schedules and charters in separate sections.
Scheduled flights to Dalaman are only available from Luton and Birmingham.
