Very Last Minute Holiday - Tomorrow or Friday?

Budget of around 400-500 and just want to get away to the sun/beach?

Any suggestions please?

Also if any one knows of any return flights for no more than £400 return to New York (JFK), if possible?

The holiday looking for is flying out after 6pm 24th December 2009 for 5 nights.
Have to be back in UK by afternoon 31st December 2009.

I know its cutting it and may hardly, if nothing available, but in case any 1 knows - please do let me know!

Thanx

    Have a quick look on teletext holidays and then phone a few of the operators on there and see what they cann offer you.
    Cover me in honey and fling me to the hermaphrodites!
  • try on the beach http://otbeach.com there's usually lots of choice, you pick whichever flight & accomodation you like the look of/ suits you..I've used them when booking a holiday 36 hrs before I go!

    hope you find something you fancy..:cheesy:

    Both Virgin and Air Canada have flights to NYC (from London) on Christmas day, returning to the UK on the 30th or 31st for £396 according to kayak.co.uk..though neither into JFK.
    Does remembering a time that a certain degree of personal responsibility was more or less standard means that I am officially old?
  • Try Delta LHR to JFK, haven't looked at their prices this year, but managed the same as you're after last year with them.

    It's not that difficult to get to Manhattan from Newark airport. Usually there's a train going every so often to Penn station NYC

    If you've already gone, hope you have a nice holiday!
