Does anyone think an hour is enough time to make a connection in Milan Malpensa?

If the Ryanair flight is delayed your knackered getting to Yerevan. I had 65 minutes in Istanbul on the way back from Samsun. Andypandy jet from Samsun was late and I missed the connection. Had to buy another ticket but at least with getting back to London there were loads of options. You'll struggle to even get to Yerevan. What I would do is wait before booking the UK to Malpensa bit. Wizz air have a habit of altering the times and they may alter it in your favour. They brought our flight from Vienna forward by 8 hours. Still haven't booked the London to Vienna bit.

Then you have to get to the next one which will take 20 minutes or so, by which time boarding will be closed. You need 2 hours at least to be safe.

Just booked with wonky.
Not cheap but nothing is these days. The connecting flights, as highlighted in this thread, are a bit risky so for the convenience of travelling from Cardiff direct, with luggage and at good times its worth it.
Travelled a few times with wonky now and really enjoy the trips. I'd suggest booking on the extra capacity flight if you can and just sit back and enjoy the flight!

Was thinking of going with wonky as it's my eldests first away but it's just too expensive for me. Will probably go from Manchester via London and Warsaw, a pain on the bum but it's only £100 more for two of us than one going with wonky.

I know it’s early days but does anyone have any idea about how many tickets we might get for this one? (I don’t have any aways so am only eligible on the last Red Wall category)

Our second flight from Cardiff is on sale via the website and there is a small amount of spaces left.
Visit: wonkysheep.co.uk Once this flight sells out, we will open up a small amount of spaces on the Manchester flight. They will first be offered to those already on the reserve list and then any left over will go on general sale. Those on the reserve list will be emailed. General sale announcements will be via social media. To join the reserve list go to the sold out Armenia Manchester trip on the Wales page of the website. You will be in the second group offered spaces after those on the original reserve list have had their turn. Please remember, every supporter needs to create their account on the new website and complete all their details (including passport) before you can link accounts and make a booking.

We had about that number in Turkey in June, I'm confident we will have less travelling to Armenia in November. I doubt tickets will be a problem.

Booked Thursday 16th 13.05 Pegasus flight from Stansted. 3hr wait in Istanbul so pretty standard. Wizz flights a lot cheaper but didn’t want to risk any cancellations
Staying near Republic Sq as well

Much safer bet.

Much safer bet. Just a heads up for Turkish and Pegasus airlines tickets that are not from the UK/EU - any delay under EIGHT hours is not covered for any compensation entitlements - so the leg from IST to Yerevan, for instance.
I had the misfurtune of being delayed by 7'40'' by Pegasus this Summer and all I got was a stale white bun with a piece of white cheese ;-(

It a reletively small airport and security/[assports were a breeze. You should make sure that Wizz and Ryan Air use the SAME TERMINAL? - as there are two in Milan - but I imagine that they do and if so, you should be fine.

Cheers, I posted hoping you'd have a view! Terminal 2 is exclusive for Easyjet. All other airlines use terminal 1.
