Winter Sun-Sharm el Sheikh-11th Dec-£211

Birmingham to Sharm el Sheikh 11th Dec to 18th Dec for £211 per person inc hotel B+B.

I was looking for a winter break and I came across this on the first choice website, I have heard the weather is still warm in Egypt in December, this sounds like a bargain to me as the flights to sharm el sheikh normally cost more than this. The same package is also available from Bristol for about £230.

    No seriously seems a good price.. but if you have not been to Sharm before make sure you find out more about the hotel ( location / reviews etc) first - I've stayed in a couple of nice hotels there, but both rated 5* - would not want to go less than 4 there. Of course its its bad ( either before or after you go) you could just go online and book somewhere like the hilton which is normally fairly priced/ good quality ( edit - just looked - you got me thinking - but Hilton not that chaep no )

    cheaper flight only with Thomson ( same flight) - although after adding on bags etc its just as good to have the holiday for the flight
