Flights

Ok, I haven't booked those yet. And I'm having a headache.

I've got two options... But I hope you help me make up my mind.

option no.1
Direct flight to Beauvais. Arrival 22.30h. But it's cheap. Book transport - 175 eur. Loose the whole day as we would arrive to hotel after midnight. Those fly only on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays, so overnight stay won't do any good as we 're due to arrive on Monday.

option no.2
Now there's a new flight company. Reviews aren't good mostly due flights being late or very very late. Well, they got mostly bad reviews... And it's a new flight. They start Paris direction only in February. So, basically none have traveled with them to Paris, only top other cities.
It's slightly priced higher (but I guess after I purchase luggage in Ryanair it will be almost the same).
But it's to CDG, each passenger is allowed 23kg luggage, and arrival time is 10.40 am. And only 98 to DLP with RStransports.

So, worth risk taking? Well, I assume, we would arrive to DLP earlier than midnight Or go safe?

Option 2. But make sure you have travel insurance It, to me is worth the risk. You have so much to gain.

I agree with Kizzy on that one

Travel insurance?

Travel insurance?

yes, to cover you for cancellation/lost/damaged baggage, missed connections etc, plus the all-important medical expenses if one of you becomes ill in France.

If I'm travelling with children, I always take out travel insurance - here in the UK, it doesn't cost much at all to buy for a few days (I'm usually less than £7 for a 5-day trip total for my travel insurance).

I always take insurance for illnesses and accidents, but never for flights and baggage. Thanks, will do that too.

So, you all think it's worth the risk taking?

Definitely. It saves you so much hassle and makes your whole holiday cheaper over all and takes the stress and headaches out of it all by cutting the moving hotels / paying a lot for onsite with no tickets and all that.
If this new company has only started then its probably just having teething problems at the minute and hopefully they would have them all ironed out by April and be consistently arrived on time.
