1000 for the 2 of you? or each

If it is £1000 between you both you will struggle to find a 2 week
all inclusive holiday to cuba especially at peak season.

Hi Saveapenny, travelman and everyone else that devote their time helping others.

I usually like to book my holidays direct but am having difficulty finding anything cheaper for my specific requirements.

Flying from Manchester to Antigua on Friday 26 May 2006 leaving on Friday 9 June with BMI for 2 Adults, 2 Children (both aged 7 years old) and staying All Inclusive at the Jolly Beach Resort in a superior room.

The best deal so far is with Virgin Holidays and the breakdown is as follows:

2 adults @ £1289 = £2578
1st child @ £269
2nd child @ £280
Superior room supplement £700
3 x flight supp. £180

Total £4007

Additional info: Virgin said that the Superior Room was fully booked and that they would have to request an additional room. I have e-mailed the Jolly Beach and they have offered me a superior room at US$190 per adult & US$49 per child per day. Which works out at US$6692 or approx. £3884. (This does not include the flight or transfers!!)

Expedia have quoted £6122.48 all in and someone else has quoted £5022.74.

Any help/advice much appreciated.

regards

Gobby Ash are you a member of the frequent Virgin Club?
Can you hold off booking till easter they have a 15% off easter which will save you a bit.
Other thing have you checked the megadeals side of the site?

gobbyash

No, I've not travelled with Virgin before. Can I join or do I have to have used them before to be a member??

I will check the megadeals side of the site now!!

happy new year to everyone. looking for holiday, details below

2-Duration - 1 week
3-1st & last dates to leave the UK - 28/7-1/8 - cannot go any other dates.
4-Are night flights acceptable ? yes
5-Party size & kids ages - 2 adults & 1 child (9)
6-Board basis you require - all inclusive
7-Type of resort - morocco, quite like look of Occidental Caribbean Village Agadir but any AI in Morocco considered.
9-Any other neccesary factors - n/a
10-Prices required by what day/time? - anytime
11-Max. budget FOR THE WHOLE PARTY!!! - £1500, live in scotland (don't believe they do morocco from scot airports) so flights would be required to get to LGW (or wherever), priced these to be about £200 (easyjet), overnight accomodation may also be required depending on flight times (£26 travelodge), so budget of £1500 is for everything ie internal flights and accomodation.
Many thanks
