    Hi all
    I am looking up flights to Vietnam for next July....lastminute.ie seems to be over 100 cheaper than other websites....has anyone booked with them before ??? Are there any hidden extras I should beware of ? Thanks.:)

    booked with them in january for flights to the states in march and they were fine, no hidden charges nothing (unlike many sites which charge credit card fees), i would be quick though those specials only last hours sometimes

    Was worried because the flights were mainly with cathay pacific and they were 400 dearer on the cathay pacific website which worried me !!

    Hi again
    I had one other issue, the dub-heathrow flight is with aer lingus, the rest of the flight is cathay pacific.....how long will I need to check back in, in heathrow (I rang lastminute.ie and they said I will have to check back in, that the bags wont go straight through)

    I'd be very surprised if the bags don't go through, if you've booked one ticket.

    Thats what I thought but the guy on the phone from lastminute.com said as its different air lines that I would have to collect my bags and check back in....there isnt really enough time Id imagine (less than 3 hours)...

    I hope your right...thanks

    Different airlines doesn't matter one bit if the flights are booked as one ticket.

    Did you book your flight through lasminute after ? Any complications at all ? Just wondering as I'm planning on booking a trip to Vietnam myself for June.
