  • Loveboat, I can't believe how naive you're being.
    With some travel offers the price starts low and then increases the nearer to the date of travel, with other it's the reverse. You have to suss out the system and then work it as best you can.
    At least a couple of times a year I book a flight to West Africa: as I'm restricted to whatever dates I've booked off from work, I have to try and gamble how long I can wait for flight prices to drop against the possiblity of missing the date I want. After that point (i.e. when I've flexed the plastic) I just have to resign myself to seeing prices drop further.
    As others have asked, would you really have offered to pay more if the price had gone up after you'd booked?!
  • sorry but whats that noise.......

    you know the one...

    Its on the simpsons.

    When you originally booked it was a fair price, or else u wouldn't have booked.

    Move on

    Agreed. I can't see the problem here. You enter into a contract at a price which you and the other party are happy with. No problem. Just because the company needs extra business and needs to attract it at a lower price, so what. Would anyone have complained if the rooms were later on sale at £46? I think not.

    It is just like the game you play booking airline seats. When we book well in advance very cheap, my OH can't resist checking the prices nearer departure. We are usually quids in, but if we found seats on our flight cheaper, then we would live with it. That's the chance you take. You win some, you lose some.........
