    bev06 try www.theholidayplace.co.uk they often had 10-13 nights to Cuba
    Most of the big tour ops only usualy do 7 or 14 and to be honest you will pay as much for 7 as you would for 14 ...is there any chance you can do 14?

    At this moment in time anything is possible,....just need to get away for a while..... so how much will cuba be?

    reasonable to me for a family of 5 in main school term for what would be 3 adults (15 yr old counts as adult with most) would be about £2,500 for 2 weeks maybe around 2 for 1 week.
    Just a quick look gives me a cheapish flight to Majorca in August and thats 850 without any hotel or transfers
    If you look anything like your passport photo....Your too ill to travel
