Is Avanti a registered company, that would have been started presumably to make a profit?

timeshare scam you have to pay for your flights as well

Avanti is 'managed' by Counterpoint Promotions Ltd. The leaflet also mentions Leisure Dimensions Ltd. All they seem to offer is 7 days free accommodation in one of a choice of 5 leisure complexes. I would have to pay for everything else. Not a time share I am sure. There are so many scams and some of them are so clever I cannot help feeling very suspisious of something for nothing. What do you think?

Hiya. I would think there is some sort of scam as no one gives you a week for nothing. Flights alone would cost approx £200 each unless you got a realy cheep flight. I have had pr's phoning me with this sort of offer and all you have to do is sit through their little chat....refuse the offer.

Best Wishes
