| That's very good indeed,BUT,don't forget that if airlines are offering such low fares that means that they are having trouble filling their seats,which of course means people are not going to Gambia,maybe because of this Dalasi exchange rate thing so they have to make them VERY CHEAP,Everyone on Bantaba will be very interested in how you find things in Gambia now,a vist to an internet cafe when you are there and a posting by yourself I am certain would be well recieved,provided that you can get enough Dalasi to pay the cost!! |

you are right, if that is the reason for the price drop, it shows either they were over priced in the first place or visitor numbers have dropped.
but if you were planning to go and were not sure of dates this could be deciding factor.

I am always surprised that when you buy 'ticket only' (so, no accommodation) the price goes up if you want to stay longer. Why should a return ticket be more expensive if you want to stay 3 weeks instead of 1?
Jambo, this 114 pounds - does it matter when you plan to return? |
