Want a cheap holiday and flight to anywhere tomorrow ????

Need to get away for a few days

Sunday till Wednesday. Not too long flight, on my own ( i need time to myself to think ). I dont want to sight see..... just sit by a pool and get drunk :rolleyes:

Any ideas ??? :D

Oh btw flying from either East mids / Liverpool / Birmingham / Manchester. Early flight as possible preferably.

    Not too expensive..... cheap as possible, but not dire lol
    I dont want to pay week away prices for 3 nights :-)
  • Flight on easyjet to Barcelona from Liverpool for 120 quid early on sun return late on wed. Pick up a train to Salou and book a hotel for 3 nights if u don`t want to stay in Barcelona.

    Sounds good but dont fancy getting train when got off plane.
  • so stay in barcelona but not many hotels will have a pool. you will have to get a bus or train from any airport to get to a resort,

    Thanks for the suggestion but thats not the type of holiday i was after... I know i will have to get a short bus ride from airport.... was maybe looking at Spain i.e resort, pool, bar / Portugal etc.
  • Try flightchecker on this site and you will see that there is very little avalability for flights tom cos the schools are off for a week. You put in your dates and airport and what you want to pay and check the i go anywhere and you can see for yourself what is there.To get a flight to popular resorts will be over 150-200 quid tom. you can come back from faro on wed for 20 quid but I think that it is a morning flight and sunday is a late dep and v.expensive.
  • Trains from Barcelona to Salou are fantastic!!! Frequent and much better than British trains - quite cheap too. Doesn't take long.
