    I added a web site but took it out because someone had already posted it
    and at least it wasnt having a go at the OP for asking for help unlike others
    some people just need to learn to drop the attitude on this forum
    Probably why many of the regulars dont post good deals anymore

    That seems a very good site. Don't want to look too much or I may regret booking my holiday for 2009 with First Choice.

    I can't see anyone having a pop, but there are several valid suggestions that have been made.
    perhaps some people could make better use of the MSE search function, or their inbuilt common sense function.
    As for the regulars not posting good deals anymore - perhaps that has a lot to do with people being completely ungrateful and / or having unrealistic expectations of others ;)

    I think the Thomas Cook site is one of the better ones but I agree with the OP in that no site seems to be perfect due to various search restrictions.

    The main reason why I use Tommy Cook as a base is because they seem to own so many of the old high street tour operators. I also can't stick Teletext as the prices on there never inclusive of the various supplements and that makes me mad!

    TC's website seems to have all the search features I am after, but unfortunately does not return any results. I was searching for Any destination, flexible date in September, 14 days, All inclusive, 4 or 5 stars .. other sites normally have at least 5-10 options based on this criteria :confused:

    Perhaps your search is to wide and is producing to many results for the enquiry to report.
    Have you tried by maybe cutting down your choice to one continent, or restricting the cost to one band (e.g £1500-£2000). Or and this is a long shot. Are you using Mozilla Firefox and the TC computer doesn't like it .
