I love a good bargain!!

[@TravelBlogJamie]

Oh yes 🙌

[@kevinjennings7849]

Hi Jamie, I would feel claustrophobic in an inside cabin but if I had too! That one would be better.

[@TravelBlogJamie]

It’s actually bigger than some of the higher grade cabins!

[@kadeclark4804]

Love it

We have stayed at the same Premier Inn a lot. So easy and cheaper than their high rise which is opposite the airport. Only took us about 5 mins to walk to the terminal. Great bargain

Brilliant vlog Jamie. I had an email the other day from premier inn saying some hotels are getting a new style refurbishment. Can't remember which ones but will recheck the email. Also noticed my name has disappeared from the tier 4 pages call out at the end of the vlog there.

One of the pages with 8 names got deleted by accident - you’re definitely on the next.

I think I stayed at the same Premier Inn when I came up from Southampton before I flew back to Australia. Coming over in October to board QM2 for the Transatlantic. Flying into Heathrow this time, booked into Premier Inn West Quay for the night before my cruise

[@Lol-us3bn]

Great video. Can I ask why you take a photocopy of your passport?

[@TravelBlogJamie]

It can speed up renewal if lost or stolen

[@stephenm8818]

Do like a Premier Inn for convenience at Airports, the meal deal did use to include a drink with the evening meal, have they dropped that Jamie? 😢

[@TravelBlogJamie]

Sorry no idea about the drink

[@stephenm8818]

@TravelBlogJamie that's a shame if they have dropped it ! Probably didn't cover Grey Goose and SF Red Bull anyhows !! 😂

Were you allowed to take all the items in your overnight hand luggage through security with the liquid rules, or have they been suspended now?
