Travel Day with TUI | Manchester to Cancun

Hi everyone! We couldn't wait for this travel day to try something new! None of us had ever been to Mexico before. We travelled from Manchester Airport to Cancun and stayed for two weeks at the Planet Hollywood Resort.
In amongst the travel chaos Tui subbed our flight to Hifly and we flew on an Flypop aircraft which was... interesting!

Hey guys, new subscriber alert! Watched all the vlogs from your last Orlando expedition and loved them. Looked back over a few of the older ones and have been impressed how Jim's comedic personality has bloomed over the years......definitely my kind of subtle humour! Really looking forward to this series. I was cabin crew for BA in the late 90's/early noughties and we would get seven day trips to Cancun, once a month on average. Really enjoyed my time there. The beach is stunning, the food was amazing, shopping fantastic, excursions were really interesting. All in all a great place. The nightlife from my blurred memory was a different level, absolute carnage with a crew of thirteen! Oh the stories I could tell you.....probably only suitable for Jim's ears! Keep the vlogs coming guys, makes my day when I see a new one appear. Such a lovely family and great to have a channel with such joy by the bucket load.

[@TheDespicableThree]

Thank you, really appreciate that and sounds like your cancun exploits are probably suitable post watershed 😂

[@roryoneill3085]

Another shining example of why we love your channel. You guys always make the best of a potentially bad situation and remain honest and positive! Looks like a great resort. Looking forward to the series ahead. 🙏

[@TheDespicableThree]

Thanks Rory, it is what it is but I must admit that Steph and Jimmy definitely handle adversity beter than I do 😂 Cheers mate 👍

HeyGuys! Oh wow we were so excited to get the alert of your new vlog! Especially when we saw it was to Cancun. We had booked the Hard Rock in Riviera Maya and had it cancelled in 2020 and 2021 :( So watching your vlog has given us so much excitement as the Planet Hollywood looks so much better!! we are online right now to see if we can get it through TUI Netherlands from Amsterdam for 2023..Thank you for another great vlog, we can't wait to see the rest! Jimmy , Noah and Roderigo are loving your tshirt..they are huge Vans fans too, TheirGrandma and Grandad just came back from Florida and brought loads of Vans tshirts back for them..I can't believe they fit into an American adult small size at just 11 and 12 :) Lots of love to the 3 of you and have a great weekend xx

[@TheDespicableThree]

We looked at the Hard Rock but it was quite a bit more money. When we found PH it just ticked all the boxes with the facilities- pools, lazy river, cinema... And we love a bit of in your face theming 😂 Hope TUI do offer it from the Netherlands for you guys. Have a fantastic weekend and our best wishes to you all ❤️

[@realman6ft6]

Apart from the entertainment not a bad journey all things considered. I always fly British Airways and American Airlines to Cancun and stopover in Miami or New York for a couple of days, it gets extra air miles, breaks the journey, and no extra fare just need to get you hotel. I always arrange private transfers about £100 return so you have a driver waiting for your with your name. Cancun arrivals is pretty slick usually and 45mins to an hour is par for the course. I’ve always got spare “entrance exams” for Mexico as they are quite long. What you didn’t say is don’t lose the bit they give you back as that costs you some money and a delay when leaving Mexico. Glad you didn’t have the 6 hour delay but for that flight Tui would have had to compensate you All £520 so a nice £1560 towards the next trip or stuff at home. Very much looking forward to this series.

[@TheDespicableThree]

That's a good point about keeping hold of the paperwork (luckily we did) but there were anumber of people on our transfer that hadn't. It will get covered off on our last day video 😊

[@silvo-sings]

Wow...you do get to travel a lot!!

[@silvo-sings]

. We just got back from Florida...found it extremely very worn down after 9 visits and this one post covid. I Drive now toward North end...run down and I encountered loads of homeless people on my early morining runs....incredibly hot..and theme parks busy as usual. I've got a few American - friends over the years and they are literally on their "knees" economically at the moment. First time ever I have been to Florida when It was cheaper to eat and drink in England by a long way...that was a surprise! I till managed to run 6.1 K in that crazy heat on my 61st birtheday... I think I have had my fill of Florida now. I'm pleased that you get to travel like you do. Take care.

[@TheDespicableThree]

The North end is looking like a shadow of its former self but I think that the construction of Epic Universe will bring much needed investment in to the area and it will improve. Fingers crossed anyway. Great effort running in that heat. You're a better man than me 👍👍👍🏃‍♂️🏃‍♂️🏃‍♂️

Wish we had been able to move... to another's plane 😂 The destination definitely made up for the journey 🙌

[@yugioht42]

American airports have TSA precheck which allows you mostly skip security checks. you simply run your bag through the x-ray and you walk through a quick machine scan and that's it. no separating things out just in/out 30 seconds unless they find something but usually nothing. you have to pay a fee and do a background check but worth it. its good for 5 years or more depending. I got because i travel a lot for various things so its just get it done and you get through quick. I know most other countries don't have this idea just something to think about. doesn't help at the ticket window but it helps after as you go through that line with no one in it.

Loving your videos so far. Started watching as I wanted to see how you coped with the 11hr flight. We are doing the Hard Rock next week on the Pacific side. Starting to wish I had booked this one instead.

[@TheDespicableThree]

Have an amazing time 😎. We love Hard Rock Hotels but they were quite a bit more expensive than PH

[@doodles3075]

Can I just ask if you were tipping? If so in what currency and how much? It will be our 1st time in Mexico

[@TheDespicableThree]

We took a mixture of USD and Pesos. We tipped a couple of dollars in the buffet and by the pool for drinks service. We also tipped our waiters in the restaurants- usually $5-10. We tipped housekeeping $3 per day and $2-3 for the person filling the minibar back up.

Hi just found your channel. Really liked this video. HiFly is a Portuguese leading company. They mainly have Airbus planes which Tui has Boeing. Hope this clears things up. Hope you enjoyed your flights and your holiday.

[@TheDespicableThree]

The flight out was grim with Hi Fly but the holiday was fantastic and a great flight back with Tui Nordic. Thank you 😊

[@SuperIndiedrummer]

Wow that Hotel looks amazing guys! Been looking at KZbin vids all afternoon of this resort ...very tempted 😁

[@TheDespicableThree]

We loved it Mark. It's by no means perfect (where is?) but we couldn't have been happier. It is a little out of the way but the complex and facilities are outstanding and on a beautiful stretch of beach 😎

[@SuperIndiedrummer]

@@TheDespicableThree it looked ace and can see why you all had a great time! We went to an all inclusive resort in Turkey a couple of years ago due to Florida not happening and the amount of complaints people had despite expected restrictions due to covid was unreal..we absolutely loved the resort and fallen in love with Turkey 🇹🇷 ( still not better than Florida though 😀)

[@TheDespicableThree]

People often have unreasonable expectations and expect to be waited on hand and foot and not have to wait... for anything. Blows my mind.

[@robturner4895]

Sorry Jim, but watching you being a martyr on that flight out was hilarious........ now watch Karma strike me down for laughing when it happens to me on the flight to Orlando later this year! haha

[@TheDespicableThree]

The way things are going it's definitely a possibility Rob 😂 Still, as long as they get you there and back safely...

[@TinkerTales]

Pretty sure if me and Rich were stuck on a plane for 10 hours without any entertainment one of us would have been pushed out the emergency exit 😂 the hotel looks amazing! 💜

[@TheDespicableThree]

Don't doubt that with you lovely pair 😂😂😂 Hope you're both feeling better x

[@TinkerTales]

@@TheDespicableThree both finally negative so all good thanks 💜

[@TheDespicableThree]

Fantastic news 🙌

[@TheStrangerCouple]

We really feel for you guys, but hey if you can survive an 11hr flight on a plane like that you can get through anything. We are also praying you didn’t have to get on that plane back… Your hotel on the other hand is fir for a rockstar! It is just insane! Absolutely love it and can see my self and Scotty staying there anytime! 😎 🖤

[@TheDespicableThree]

Thank full we got a dreamliner on the way back and it was a much more comfortable experience. The hotel definitely made up for the cruddy plane 😂

[@mikoto7693]

What aircraft did you have going out?

[@sarahbream6931]

Bringing back a few memories different hotel but we was there week before you during tropical storm . Still loved it tho x

[@TheDespicableThree]

We met a family on an excursion that were there during the storm week. Glad you still had a great time xx

[@rachohara]

We're staying at the same hotel in 2 weeks time, so really looking forward to the vlogs 😀

[@TheDespicableThree]

Have an amazing time Rachel. We absolutely loved it there and the rooms are incredible and so spacious 😍

[@nikki-qm9wz]

Oh looks amazing guys 🤩 . What plane did you get I thought it would be Dreamliner to Mexico ? , but was it a good flight ? Excited to see this vlog . Hotel looks lush 💕💕 Mexico is on our list was looking at Tulum but this looks fabulous Thankyou for sharing .They will do direct flights now to Mexico from a Doncaster Airport so that’s why we thought about a Mexico think start in a July this year 💕💕

[@TheDespicableThree]

I think it was a Robin Reliant Plane 😊 We chose Planet Hollywood due to all the movie theming and plenty of things to keep Jimmy entertained. We loved it although it's a little out of the way - about an hour from the main cancun hotel zone. Would love to fly there from Donny 👌
