Do Thomsons have frequent flight sales??

I know they have just had a 30% off sale but I was not in the position to book my flights at the time. I am looking to book flights for Sept and unsure whether to hold off or book now??.. the price just now is not particularly cheap. Thanks :)

    Supply and demand..... if the demand is there the prices will remain higher, if demand is lower then prices will reduce.

    Perhaps if you said where you were flying from and to and what price you have been quoted then someone will be able to advise you further accordingly.

    Is it this year or next? Do you think the demand for the flights is good or low, or if they have already sold a good number of seats on the flight.

    Thanks for the replies guys :) Much appreciated.

    I am looking to fly from Glasgow to Palma this Sept for a long weekend 3-4 nights around the weekend of the 12th Sept as its my Birthday.

    The best I have found is Fri 12th - Tue 16th Sept.

    I really dont know how many seats have been sold or what the demand is like.

    Many Thanks for your help :)

    Forgot to say that price comes in at £156.98 plus the £13 for baggage so £169.98

    So they are the cheapest, Palma is popular and has good weather in September, you would expect cheaper flights in mid January.
