Let’s start where we ended - Lorraine from Bow heading to New York over the Easter Weekend. Here’s the place to start looking for a good place to stay: http://www.lbc.co.uk/new-york-hotels-that-wont-break-the-bank-30734/view/12784#photo. Make the most of spring in Central Park, take the Staten Island ferry free for the best maritime views of Manhattan, then wander north along Brooklyn as far as the mood takes you, slicing through the fascinating neighbourhoods of the Big Apple.
I promised an India tour operator for Paresh: http://www.udaytour.com/ is recommended as fair and reliable. Contact them before you go.
The bargain of the week is on Etihad from Heathrow via Abu Dhabi to a wide range of Asian and Australian destinations. Book at www.etihadairways.com by Tuesday 31. The best short-term seat sale of the year so far. Sydney or Melbourne is £699 return, for travel 16 April-20 June. The other great bargain is Manila for £489, valid from now to 20 June except for the first two weeks in April.
And two more sources for you: the best source of travel information for British travellers http://www.fitfortravel.nhs.uk/home.aspx. And that price comparison website for pre-existing medical conditions: https://www.moneysupermarket.com/travel-insurance/pre-existing-medical-conditions/enquiry/
