  • think your problem is the lack of flights from Aberdeen. No flights in April to Palma you can go on a Thursday and come back Monday with flyglobespan starting 6th May. Try Edinburgh or Glasgow if you want to go in April

    Shame globespan only stoppped their April flight this year, I went last year. It is still pretty quiet in April so the first week in May would probably suit you better. Either do a search on globespan or a "flight and hotel" search on tam cook.

    Also if you're problem is that you are getting "unable to confirm availability" on globespan, could be because you are booking a big group. Try calling them up.

    yep that looks like the problem with globespan, if you just put in two adults travelling mon-thu first week in may, you're looking about £158 per person including transfers. Call them up for a group booking.

    Or make two seperate bookings. This is for 8 people from thomas cook

    I know we fair miss out on flights living up here!

    Instead of package holiday on thomas cook search "flight and hotel" as it gives you globespan flights.

  • I don't know why anyone wastes money on hen/stag parties. It's not as if you won't see your friends after you're married! My husband and I did without them; we've been happily married for 23 years.
  • point lesss comment! we want ti have a henny we please our selves
