Hey Gene

I was told and I have been telling all to get online as not at airport anymore but I see that they have left it again

At least £20 like last year

Yes, apparently you can still get it at the airport for the time being - but so much easier, not to mention cheaper, to do it online before you go...

I don't understand why people still do it at airport, and surprised it is still allowed. Last year I done online and did not even have to show printouts to passport control. Not sure if that has to do with new style passports or not, but should all be linked when the passports are swiped through the info should appear on their screens, I thought that was the point of it all.

Yes, indeed it should. They did say the evisa would be compulsory this year - but for some reason they have decided to continue to make the visa available at airports for the time being. People are advised to print out a copy though - and although, like yourself, we weren't asked to show our printouts, some people have been asked to do so, so better to be safe than sorry.

We were asked to show our visa printouts going to Istanbul last month.

That's true blondie, I usually print 2 of everything. I have the equivalent of a ring binder in my hand luggage, even though most is not needed. I veer on the cautious side of things

Paid the balance of my hotel and transfare money this weekend to ICR.I am truly fully ready to go now,next stage will be cases out of the loft.

well done rhino, i usually go up the attic and pull down cases ready to go. my wife usually washes and irons as soon as we come back !!

Sounds like people are busy getting prepared

I use lists for everything & love ticking things off the holiday list as we get closer to departure

Everything except car parking done we fly out on 25th May, it's the first time for my son, daughter in law and 13 year old grandson so we are really looking forward to showing them round.
