They seem to love the 1299.

... I m looking at booking a long weekend end away hopefully in Venice with the missus in october. So will be trying to book it this week. As you say good time to book as euro is weak so Italian hotels should effectively be cheap and thanks to a low oil price air travel is relatively cheap.
