- Hi everyone! After a fun couple of hours at Universal, come see the gradual decline of my optimism throughout this travel day home. We had a few ups and downs but made it home safely so all's well that ends well.
Any questions please leave a comment or drop us an email at thedespicablethree@gmail.com

Shame to see this series come to an end, glad you bother had a brilliant time despite the weather issue. Thanks for sharing and taking us along.
Hope you all have an amazing Christmas and New Year.
And wishing the same to you and yours too. Thanks ever so much as always ❤️
Wow!! Sounds like you had the travel day from hell!! Glad you arrived home safe and sound. Hope you all have a lovely Christmas and New Year. xxx
We've definitely had better ones but not so much this year 🙈 Hope you guys have a wonderful and restful Christmas too ❤️ xx
Aah guys you handled that situation in a much calmer way than I would have done. I think if I’d heard “13-15 hour flight” I would have looked like a wreck with tears down my face as I really hate flying 😆 You were very dignified and I’m so pleased it wasn’t as bad as the rumours but still you did so well! Please don’t think people won’t watch your Vlogs if they aren’t Orlando. I’d love any of your holidays to watch 🥰
Thanks so much lovely. It was really stressful at the time and not much better watching it back but thankfully it turned out ok in the end ❤️
Hey Steph 🤗 I totally agree about the lack of communication on Tui’s part. I really struggle with travelling therefore any kind of delay, detour etc would be my absolutely nightmare and I would have been in a state if I was in that same position. I’m glad (outside of this situation) you had a lovely holiday and I cannot wait to see where you’re off to with Jimmy. I hope you’re all well and having a lovely weekend so far 🥰 xxx
The unknown was gut wretching but at least we eventually got back in one piece. Hope you have a lovely Christsmas Lee. Take care ❤️
What a horrible end to a great holiday such a shame 😞 Nevermind you made Jimmy& Holly will be pleased to see you both 😀 Thanks for blog 🎄
We got back safe and sound to our two favourites but never want to see or hear Punta Cana again Caroline 😂❤️
You could have a drinking game with this one. A shot every time you hear Punta Cana. Loved this series guys x
It triggers Steph whenever she hears it now. Might look for a cheeky week 😉
@The Despicable Three yeah I bet mate. That was a mission
So glad you are home safe and smiling❤ Jim is correct, on our last Florida trip in September my car ran out of gas on the way to the coach station from Glasgow to Manchester, our coach was then delayed an hour, we were then prepared however dreading the 5 hour coach journey to Manchester and didn’t want to take a train because of the strikes, to then get on the M6 to realise half of it was closed on a Saturday which meant our 5 hours dreaded coach transfer turned into a 15.5 hours coach transfer with little food and little drink (being type 1 diabetic not good😅) and broken toilets. Finally at midnight we got to Manchester airport and stayed in the hotel. Travel days arrived and the flight was delayed by 3 hours, I got called for extra security which took almost 1.5 hours waiting on everyone who had been called, finally on the plane to realise we had an additional 2 hour delay😂😂 jamie and I now laugh about it and had the best holiday ever!
Hi Arlena and blimey! We always joke now that people should avoid travelling on the same date as us but I reckon you guys are the ones to avoid judging by that 😉😂 What a nightmare!. Happy New Year and hope that 2023 has some nice adventures in store for you ❤️
Just caught up with the Vlog 👏👏👏 (Orlando Informer night was fantastic BTW)
Looking forward to seeing the Vlog where the record player is installed at home 🤣🤣
Have a wonderful Christmas
Hi Andrew, sounds like you had a brilliant night with the OI 🙌
Merry Christmas to you and yours 😊
Hi guys really enjoyed all the Florida vlogs, whirlwind of a week for you both and a eventful travel home. My worse nightmare not being a good traveller 😮 I’m looking forward to watching the new holiday vlog with Jimmy in tow, have a super Christmas guys and all the best for the New Year, thanks for keeping us entertained this year xx
Thank you as always Lisa and wishing you and yours a very Merry Christmas too ❤️
Thanks again. Will miss your blog's.
We will still have a series or two left in us but not Florida ❤️
Good to hear. You are a lovely family
So glad you got home safe after what looked like a very difficult day, I bet it felt like the longest day in the world! It looked like you guys had an amazing time, you got so much done despite the hurricane! I really felt for you Steph when you were anxious at the airport, it seemed like Jim was trying to make you laugh to take your mind off it all bless him! Thanks so much for taking the time to vlog your trip, I look forward to seeing where you end up next! Have a wonderful Christmas and a Happy New Year guys, take care :) ❤
Hi Jade. It was an awful experience due to the unknown and I really felt for all the families travelling with small children. Absolute nightmare. Thank you so much for watching and I hope you and your family have a very Merry Christmas too ❤️ x
Top vlog, we sailed through Melbourne top airport, no queues anywhere but different circumstances. Really enjoyed your series, a week is never long enough let alone losing days to hurricanes, am sure you’ll be back before long. I know you would never say but holidays are great without kids !
It was exceptional circumstances and I'm sure they will improve over time (sounds better already to be fair) 😊👍👍👍
Awww Steph, you looked so upset 😢. I know you’re home safely now, but that wasn’t good. It’s always the lack of information that gets you. You’re both still my favourite vloggers, so genuine 🥰
Watching it back stressed me out Ruth but all is well that ends well. The lack of communication was a killer. Thank you so much and take care ❤️ x
Not the best ending to your holiday, but I bet your reunion with Jimmy and Holly helped to make up for it! Thanks for letting us tag along. I look forward to starting my weekend with your vlog, so I miss you already! Until next travel day, take care and enjoy your wonderful family!
Going back home to those two made it the easiest ever end to a holiday. Thank you so much, that means the world. Have a wonderful Christmas ❤️
Shame about the trip back on a plus at least it wasnt the 13 hour slog rumour.Loving that voodoo and frank t.shirt.Great share have an awesome week 😎👍
That would have just about finished us off 😂
Have a great week too 👍👍👍
Thanks for making us laugh on a cold cold night - thanks for the journey sorry return was so horrendous - take care and stay safe - Kevin & Cyndy
All is well that ends well. Have a nice weekend and stay warm ❤️
Sorry for the end but you picked up some really fun tshirts! Great gifts to bring home.
Can't beat a last minute purchase or two 😍 Cheers Kris
Hi guys 💜🙏 thank you please stay safe can see a nightmare flight home but got home safely 🤙😊💜
Thanks Suzanne. All's well that ends well ❤️ xb
Always sad to leave any holiday, glad you had a good time. TUI seems to have made life a little more interesting, but it all came good in the end. Going to be sad not to see you in Florida, as that is where we first started watching. Looking forward to your future adventures.
Thanks Ian. Florida will always be our #1 and hopefully we will be lucky enough to go back in the future but we are excited to visit other parts of the World 😊
Awh lads! I can't believe that happened but as always you are so positive...I don't know how you do it!
Cracked me up. Needed it after the stress of watching that back 😂
What a shame about all the stress getting home 🥺 Glad it wasn’t as long as u through it might be.
Loved the series as always.
Hope ur all well and getting excited for Christmas xxx
Hi G, thanks ever so much. We are all ok thank you and the Christmas break can't come soon enough. Hope you guys are all set for the big day ❤️
Loved the vlogs,as we always do. But what a nightmare getting home to Jimmy and Holly. Wishing you all a merry Christmas and a Happy New Year🎄
It was worth it to get back home to them both 😍 Hope you and yours have a wonderful Christmas too 🎅❤️ xx
Nice to get a few hours in the park on travel day home.
What a nightmare, completely get how the uncertainty can bring in the stress. Poor from Tui but great you found people to talk to at the airport to pass the time (otherwise you’d have to talk to each other 🤣)
Been great following a long, looking forward to the next trip 😎
Talking to each other!!!.... that really would have been a travel day from hell 😂😂😂😂
Thank you for the last day vlog. Always bitter sweet, not wanting to leave but wanting be home with the kids and pets. Sorry to hear about the flight home, not good. I should have flown home on the Thursday but flight got rescheduled for the Sunday. Bit panicky trying to get the room booked for 3 more days. Luckily got sorted and the airline paid for it. Just cost more spending money. Look forward to the next series. Have a great Xmas. Stay safe.
Sounds like a nightmare Mark but glad you managed to get everything sorted. It's not the sort of stress that you need though 😔
If I ever see you guys in the same queue as me in the airport....I'm cancelling and extending my holiday! 🤣🤣🤣 You seem to get the worst luck with flights home!! Great series again...thanks for sharing!
Definitely don't book anything at the same time as us Troy. We are definitely cursed 😂😂😂
Sorry you guys had such a stressful flight home! At least it wasn't as long as some were suggesting when you were waiting at the airport in Florida and I think you and Jim both dealt with it really well. Looking forward to finding out more about your next holiday!
Thanks James. The 13 hour suggestion was frightening to say the least so we were relieved in the end ❤️
Cant wait for the next one.x
Thanks for watching 😊
Oh Steph seeing you anxious at the airport is breaking my heart! Loved Jim’s comment about throwing in the towel 😂Glad you guys got home safe though! We fly home from mco tomorrow so fingers crossed all is fine :)
Safe travels tomorrow and you are off to a positive start that you aren't flying with TUI 😂 Hope you've had a lovely time. Take care ❤️
Hello. So glad all was well in the end. Jim's jokes cracked me up but both of you stayed positive. Just home from London . Airports can be stressful at times but like you guys i got chatting to some lovley people in gatwick . Keep smiling making loads of memories . ✨️✨️😘stay warm.😉
It always helps having nice people to speak too. Hope you had a good trip Amanda and take care ❤️
The Despicable Three Thanks so much. I did,
Take care 😘
I flew back from Melbourne in November 22. The new terminal is open, much bigger with a large’ish bar/restaurant. Security very quick.
That sounds a bit more like it. It definitely wasn't set up for the numbers it handled on the day we were there but it was exceptional circumstances to be fair 👍
Looks like an interesting vinyl, don’t blame you getting it! We were very tempted by a voodoo donut tshirt too! What a nightmare with your flight home 😫 a flight got cancelled and half the passengers had to be put on our Manchester flight and the other half onto Gatwick. But like you there was little to no information being put across! Really enjoyed watching this series guys ❤
They are a nightmare aren't they and you guys had a terrible experience of your own. I worry about the future of TUI which is a shame as they've always been great in years gone by. Sad to see 😔
LOL, TUI moved to Melbourne stating that its easy!...I read time and time again ( also have TUI crew friends, ex Britannis myself) of problems here.Just wait till the cruise passengers start!
I honestly wonder what is going on with TUI at the moment. We overheard lots of complaints between the cabin crew about how things are being run. Hopefully they get things sorted as they used to be great. They should have stuck with Sandford
OMG guys what a complete nightmare!! Did you have any comeback from Tui? That’s not very good customer service….. However, glad you had a lovely holiday, we have really enjoyed watching the vlogs, thanks for sharing ❤
Have a lovely weekend! xxxx
It is all classed as weather related Nicola, the only thing that really got our goat was the lack of any communication. They go on about downloading the TUI app and it is a waste of time. Still, they got us home safely eventually so all was good in the end ❤️
So sad to see the Florida series end, the vlogs have been really enjoyable! Was lovely to meet you both on the plane as we were about to depart Melbourne, albeit not in the best circumstances 😂 we’ve decided to never fly TUI to Florida again after the experience, the lack of communication combined with the really poor infrastructure at Melbourne is now enough to make us pay that little bit extra to fly Virgin to MCO!
Hi Declan and lovely to meet you too. We have said exactly the same thing and it is true that you get what you pay for sometimes. We would rather pay more to fly in to MCO with Virgin too.
Wishing you and yours a very merry Christmas. Take care ❤️
Great vlog as usual! I hope you’ve applied for your compensation, should be quite a bit and it’s really the least they can do to put you through that!
It's weather related dealy so it doesn't qualify. Its the lack of communication that really got us
Brilliant series of videos, a shame it was such a faff for your both at the end but at least you had some lovely merch to take home. Watch the not the nine o’clock news music shop sketch (it might make you laugh in regards the record 😊)
Another 5 star video, thanks guys ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Thank you and I'll have to take a look at that in the morning. Hope you and yours have a lovely Christmas ❤️
Wow, what a way to end the trip! So glad you were able to stay so positive. As an American, it's so interesting to watch the experiences. At my age, I've only been on a plane three times, and I think I would have been more freaked out than you. LOL Looking forward to your next vlog. If I don't see it before Christmas, I hope you all have a really nice one! :) Barbara
Thanks Barbara and wishing you and your family a very merry and restful Christmas too ❤️
OMG what an awful end to your holiday!! as a nervous flier not sure I would of coped with going to Punta Cana before home!! we are travelling TUI in September so this is making me slightly nervous. Still really enjoyed watching your vlog xx
Thanks ever so much and hopefully they have got their act together by then. We've had two bad experiences with TUI this year but minor compared to some of the things we've read and seen. Have a lovely Christmas ❤️
I've really enjoyed this Florida series 👍
Such a shame the journey back was stressful & chaotic - especially with the lack of updates from them to prepare
That was the killer Mike. Nobody knew or were saying anything and their 'real time' app is next to useless. Thank you for watching ❤️
Hi guys,wow what a travel day that was,gotta say you guys handled that situation with patience and you kept calm I'd have probably lost it tbh🙈😬tui should be ashamed of themselves and a little communication goes along way especially as surely they should realise that people would have to change plans due to getting back later than planned and I'm surprised tui are still in business after the last year or so,I've just got one thing to say to you steph,punta canta punta canta punta canta punta canta punta canta punta canta etc🙈🤣🤣I'm sure Jimmy and hollie were glad to see you back home and such a shame the vlogs have come to an end but look forward to what's coming next,have a great sunday guys,stay safe and warm🥶🙂👍
That has triggered us Mark 😂😂😂👏
This does seem like the tip of the iceberg with TUI and judging by what we have read I think you sadly could be right. Our February holiday is with them and that's why we are worried it may not happen but fingers crossed 🤞
Thanks as always and have a fantastic and peaceful Christmas ❤️
@@TD3Vlogs ah well fingers crossed for February then guys and look forward to seeing where your going,yes you all have an amazing Christmas and New year and hope 2023 is good for you guys🙂👍
Aww I’m so sorry to see these vlogs come to an end 😢I’ve really enjoyed watching you both. Do you think you’ll do any Xmas vlogs? Omg what a nightmare travel day home 😮 The lack of communication is just awful! Poor Steph I really felt your anxiety that is exactly how I am. So glad you managed to sleep on the flight and you both got home safely! Unbelievable though the problems you’ve had with flights this year, I’m sure 2023 will be much better for you ❤xx
Hi Julie. We were lucky to have the nice holiday's this year but the flights were all nightmares 😂 It was definitely the lack of communication that was the killer with this one. We will have a little Christmas home vlog up in a week or so. Speaking of Christmas, I hope you and your family have a lovely one ❤️ x
Aww I’ll look forward to that then. Thank you so much. I hope you have a lovely Christmas and an amazing 2023 ❤️xx
Thank you xxx
That looked a hell of a flight guys - im Optimistic that Florida in Feb is the right time of year for first-timers - looking forward to it now - should beat the Christmas lull & im Vlogging it all so plenty of Florida vlogs coming from my way back end of Florida early March - have a lovely Christmas and see you on the other side
I'm sure you'll have a great time Craig. We've hung our Florida camera up realistically but enjoy it - great hobby and tonnes of memories 🤳👌
Hi guys, have just been watching some of your Florida vlogs in preparation for our trip next month! Sorry to hear about your detour on your trip home. In the vid you mention some conical shaped eye patches for sleeping. Can you tell me where you got them from please? Thanks, Vicki
Hi Vicki. Oh my gosh, you must be getting super excited 😎 The masks are from Manta Sleep and they are genuinely amazing and worth the money. I've popped a link in for you below. Have a fab time x
mantasleep.uk/
Thanks so much! I'll take a look. Yeah, we're super excited!
I hear that Punta Cana makes a great holiday destination! You should get a free trip, you mentioned the name on so many occasions. Good P.R.
Seriously though, i.m.o. TUI 'suck.' I would never, ever, travel with them again after a couple of bad experiences. I was a real Thomson's gal, but when the German side took over, as far as I'm concerned, that's when the problems, for me anyway, began. It's Jet2 for me now. More luggage allowance as well.
When I used to fly to Florida, it was Jetsave, who were fantastic. However, I don't think they are in existence anymore, which is a great shame. For the west coast, I used to use Trailfinders, also an excellent company.
Pleased you had a good time, and arrived home safely. Did Jimmy like his haul?
I honestly don't understand what has happened with TUI Marilyn. There are horror stories every day and much worse things than the experiences we have had with them. It's sad to see. Jimmy was very happy with what we came back with for him but he's always been an appreciative little fella. Hope you and yours have a wonderful Christmas. Take care ❤️
Hi, sorry you had such a nightmare flight home. The lack of communication was terrible for you. On your last day in studios we sat in those same seats at the today cafe and had the ham and cheese breakfast sandwich x
Great minds think alike Joanne. Lovely spot for a bite and some people watching ❤️
So where you the first ever flight from Melbourne to Punta Cana? Despicable 3 breaking ground!
No, the Glasgow, Birmingham and Bristol flights beat us to it 🙈😂😂😂
Merry Christmas Alan 🎅
The one thing I found disappointing about Universal was the Harry Potter merch. There just weren't very many options that felt exclusive to the parks-most things I could buy for less, elsewhere. I'm going solo in March for Mardi Gras, so this vlog has me feeling extra stoked! TY!
Hi Crystal and I know exactly what you mean about the HP merch. It's probably a good job for us as we already want to buy too much of their other merch ranges 😂 Have a fantastic time in March, we loved our First Mardi Gras experience this year and are big fans now. Take care and thanks for watching ❤️ x
Love your vlogs - brilliant role models as parents ... lovely people. Why are you not going back for a while?
Thanks a lot Kim. Very kind of you to say. It's a combination of factors- Jimmy is keen to visit new places, cost, exchange rate etc. It will always be our favourite place but Mexico opened our eyes
Sorry you had such a nightmare! Sounds a bit like us when we got stuck in Kos and had a 22 hour delay in September. Said we’d never use jet 2 again but we had something booked haha!
Always the way 🙈😂
22 hours though- that makes our experience look like childs play ❤️
@@TD3Vlogs Haha! We were sat on the runway for hours with no communication, but I’d rather be safe and like you say, the important thing is you got home!
You have no luck for travel! Especially for a couple who are so organised and early!
Let that be a lesson to us in future Cole 😂😂😂
yep welcome to florida after any big storm. this exact thing happens as you are stuck at the airport for a while. you could have waited a day or more after that date and it clears out. try flying Delta next time as its a better company at least they don't screw you and fix whatever you have an issue with.
TUI used to be brilliant before the pandemic but their communication and service since has been terrible. Have a good weekend Andy. All the best 👍
The look back and laugh comment. Ah yes….. I still can’t look back and laugh at the Icelandic volcano eruption trip. We went on holiday for a week and stayed for two on Lanzarote. I remember school ringing us when we were trying to catch up on sleep and saying we are shut as our staff are trapped abroad. Yeah, us too, and she wanted to talk about it 🙄
That sounds like a nightmare Marie 🙈😂
I bet it felt like living in the Twighlight Zone. All is well that ends well and all that though ❤️
Hi guys we was on the Gatwick flight , it was terrible from TUI not informing us about anything, via Punta Cana, and then changed our paid for seats , did you claim anything back regarding delays etc , I’ll never fly with TUI again after what happened , thanks guys
The lack of communication was disgusting wasnt it? No point claiming I don't think - they have said the issues were weather related. We wouldn't ever fly with them again either. Its such a shame whats going on with them at the moment (we were lucky to get a holiday judging by the things we have read). Hope you have smoother travels this year 😎👍
Yea that’s true , we didn’t bother , we’re going back with BA this year , defiantly won’t go with TUI again , hope you have better travels too🙌🏻🙌🏻
Thank you 😊 We have one last holiday booked with TUI next month but fortunately they are not the operating airline and we fly with Etihad.
Happy Xmas guys 😀
Merry Christmas Richard ❤️
Hi , with tui do you get free shuttle bus service from Melbourne to hotels and back ? I've only ever gone to international airport and always got a car hire or magical express lol
Hi, you get a free shuttle with TUI. It's a bit of a trek and I'd only fly there if it was a great deal 👍
I've just caught up with this having had an awful travel home day myself. My flight on Saturday was cancelled (virgin). I was sent to a hotel then had to make my way back to Orlando Airport an hour later for Aer Lingus flight. Communication with Virgin was abysmal, similar to your experience with TUI. I agree that if I had been kept properly informed I could have mentally prepared but once I was rebooked I heard nothing from Virgin. I arrived home 13 hours later than my scheduled arrival time ...I'm guessing Virgin will fob me off as they rebooked me on Aer Lingus
Oh Sarah, that sounds absolutely horrendous. Seems like crap service is the norm with everything these days. Hope you are back in the swing of things now as you must have been exhausted ❤️ x
Just wondering if you guys deleted the weekend vlogs😊
Hi Joseph, yes we did.
@@TD3Vlogs thanks for the help
Take a shot every time Steph says Puntacana 😂
So sorry you had such a rubbish experience, I don't know anyone who has had enjoyable flights this year - don't know if it's because of staffing issues following the pandemic or what.
My friends flew BA to/ from Tampa - did not enjoy it at all and theyve flown all over with loads of airlines.
Know some people who flew BA into the new Terminal C at MCO - absolute pandemonium, short staffed, not ready for passengers at all.
Even our Virgin flight home in May was the worst I've had (not Virgins fault tbf, unwell passenger resulted in an emergency stop in hBoston salf way through adding another 2.5hrs. Plus lots of sick kids and dirty nappies 😨)
Virgin is the only airline I would fly with at the moment - seem to be the most reliable.
Just want to say thanks for all the vlogs, I really enjoy them and love your vlogging style. I hope you get back to Florida one-day but look forward to your other travels 😃
Creasing at the drinking game idea 😂
I think the pandemic became an easy excuse for a lot of companies and travel has been particularly badly hit. You do wonder if it will ever get back to what it was. Virgin definitely seem to be the pick of the bunch but so expensive. Then again, you do get what you pay for as they say. Hope you have a wonderful Christmas ❤️
@@TD3Vlogs i certainly hope it does - we pay so much for these trips it will be nice to go back to minimal disappointment!
Thanks guys, hope you have a lovely Christmas too and a cracking New Year ❤️
Your travel day home seemed like a epic journey but you got home eventually and that's the main thing. Big question is did you get your record player
Very true Helen. We got home safe and sound and that's what matters. We are indeed the proud owners of a record player now 😂❤️
@@TD3Vlogs hope listening to the vinyl is bringing back great memories of your trip
It definitely does 😍
Sorry to hear you had such a nightmare getting home. You guys and TUI are cursed. Stay well clear from them in future! Did you get any compensation from them due to the chaos they caused without giving you any communication. So ooor.
Our next holiday is booked with Tui... hence the reason we have limited confidence in it actually happening 🙈😂 The delay was weather related so no compensation due. Thanks for watching guys ❤️
Hmmm tui ..we waited at dockside with all the people who was on our flight ..our names wasn’t on that coach ,he wouldn’t let us on ,,,we messaged tui they said he’d come back and pick us up ,he never did ,,we ended up on another coach from a different travel company who took us to Melbourne,,,our flight w was delayed anyway so we didn’t have to wait to long 7/half hour flight to Manchester,,goin with virgin next may instead 🤪🤪
I've heard so many horror stories about the transfers you wouldn't think it would be that difficult to organise but they are pretty shambolic at the moment 🙈
Tbh we had trouble with virgin pick ups coming back in September the problem seems to be with mears, they never picked us up and I had paid for a private taxi
Nightmare. It shouldn't be that difficult really 🙈
We stayed at Royal Pacific and they dropped us off at the side door for the shuttle buses so went back there for the transfer back to the airport . Unfortunately the bus picked up from the front of the hotel so we missed it, they also said they tried to phone us which they didn’t. We ended up getting an Uber and spoke to a Tui staff member at the airport which ended up being pointless so messaged them through the app on on return. They refunded us the £95 Uber fee straightaway as they didn’t specify the pick up point.
Jeez, they really are an absolute shambles. I think they must make it up as they go along! 🙈
Aww guys you are just so unlucky when it comes to travelling with TUI. Have loved this Vlog series but completely understand not wanting to return to Florida with the hike in prices, not until Epic Universe is open at least. Look forward to seeing some other travel vlogs in the future if you decide to film. Love the photo from all my fave travel vloggers from Paultons today. 😃 x
Thanks lovely. Our February holiday is booked with TUI 🙈 but we are hoping it will be ok as it's not their own flight. Its a part of the world that we've never been to before so it is really exciting. Just hope it goes ahead. Thanks as always ❤️
We have just booked Tui for the very first time for our trip to Florida. We normally fly with Virgin but they stopped flying from Scotland for when we want to go.
How did you guys find flying on-board with Tui other than the communication issues? We're they really poor to fly with? I loved flying with Virgin so nervous about having to go with Tui
The flights are usually ok to be fair except they do seem to have had a habit this year of using other airlines to fulfil some flights (we had this when we went to Mexico with them earlier in the year if you've seen that travel day?) That was easily the worst plane I've travelled on. Hopefully you will get one of their own dreamliners to Florida and back 🤞
Thank you. Look forward to seeing more of your content wherever that may be. You have all given great tips on things to do in Florida and me and my wife have loved the videos
Thanks Alan and very much appreciated 😊
Remind me Monty python sketch , your lucky I live shoe box middle road , your lucky work down pit 8 days week etc etc 😇😩
Sorry, not familiar with it so I don't understand the context.
@@TD3Vlogs Am sorry was not my best attempt at some light hearted humour even am not sure why did comment, gota stop drinking wine in the afternoon, my apologies will try harder next time 😇😇
Never stop drinking wine in the afternoon 😉
Your not going to rush to book a holiday to the Dominican then? How stressful for you. I would have had the same level of anxiety. Not communicating is awful especially when you have stuff to organise for when you get home.
In a word Michelle - No 😂
Punta Cana is definitely not on the bucket list lol ❤️
Good old TUI. I see their customer service hasn’t improved 😩
I think they may be in trouble judging by some of the horror stories I've seen recently which makes our issues look like childs play 🙈
@@TD3Vlogs yep, agreed. I’ve seen some really bad stuff lately! My flights were booked with TUI for Orlando next year but I’ve cancelled and booked with Virgin instead!
A sensible choice I think. I'd rather pay the extra now than risk TUI
Think of the compensation!
What compensation? 😂
Get in from TUI website for flight delay over 3 hours!
It was a weather related day following the Hurricane Richard
@@TD3Vlogs yes understood but was it weather related on the day?
Apparently so although TUI are a shambles at the minute so I expect it wouldn't have gone to plan anyway. Either way, we got home eventually bit wouldn't fly with them again
I would put TUI on your no fly list
They've already been added Glen 😉😂
I swear airports give me more anxiety than hospitals
I hear you 😂😂😂
What a shame hope this didn’t spoil your trip
We got home safe and sound eventually so all is well that ends well 😊
Will never book with tui had a bad time going out n issues whilst out etc n communication from tui or Lack of is rubbish lol
We have travelled with them twice this year and not had a good experience either time. It's a shame as we have used them plenty of times before and they were absolutely great. I hope they manage to get back to their old ways 🤞
I will never travel with TUI, they seem a shambles 😡
They are at the moment, seen some real horror stories. Much worse than ours. It's a real pity
