Can anyone help us find a honeymoon?

I am getting married in July and I don't have a honeymoon :o can anyone help? I've looked everywhere...

Basic needs:

Depart Mon 6th July (or late 5th July) from Manchester, Leeds or Doncaster Airport

Destination: Dubai, Maldives, Seychelles or somewhere equally lovely :o

Budget: Max £1200 per person

Half board, must be away from building works or noise, and preferably not a family hotel, must be quiet!!

I've looked on loads of sites but they are either out of budget or the flights don't match up (oh and hubby to be won't fly on Air France or any budget airline as he has flown with them before and didn't really enjoy the experience).

Thanks for any help!!:T

  • Could you get to London Gatwick on 5th July? You could go to Sun Island Resort And Spa in the Maldives with First Choice. Flight is at 18:05. £1175 per person.

    There doesn't seem to be any package flights to that area of the world from Manchester.

  • I second Kuredu, I went last year and check prices daily as I want to go again in May or June. It was fab and as all inc you don't need to spend once there! Today prices are cheaper on Kuoni than First Choice which is unusual! For direct flight you'll have to go from Gatwick tho :(
  • Dubai is incredible! Went there last summer! Amazing place would recommend.
