    No ideas what country? Canaries will be expensive at that time of year as will Cyprus (I suspect).

    £1000 for four flights and accomodation over new year!...

    Good luck. Assuming you're flying from London the cheapest I can see on teletext (which is usually quite cheap) are around the £500 mark each.


    Weatherwise the canaries and cyprus are pretty much the only guarenteed sunshine places. You might be lucky in Spain, not sunbathing weather but walk about without a jacket weather.
