Hi folks, thanks for all your help a few weeks back. My girlfriend had a great time in lanzarote.This one is a more important holiday --- I'm going this time!! :-)
1- BHX or MAN prefered- will consider Gatwick, heathrow or others (depending on price)
2- 7 days (we have a max of 6.5 weekdays holiday so could do a bit more than 7 if needed depending on leave date)
3- leaving 17th-23rd Nov 2006 (need to make sure we arrive back by late 30th) - yes, this weekend!!
4- night flights not a problem
5- 2 adults only
6- All Inclusive
7- Relaxing beach resort with some activities
8- Don't want canaries as gf went last week!!
9- golden sandy beaches, clear waters and lots of sun!
10- Prices ASAP please
11- Budget for whole party is ideally less than £1000 but can stretch to £1200 if needed
We're looking at following locations:
- Egypt (although we're abit scepticle and would probably want a large resort with everything as we're not ones for being pestered bylocals trying to sell you things you don't want!)
- Carribean (mexico coast?) - might be abit far and costly for a shortbreak?
- cape verde, Sal (stuggling to find the 'new' direct flights?)
- any other nice and sunny places (except canaries.)
Thanks all
