    Hi

    Don't know if anyone can help. Finding a holiday for a family of three abroad is very expensive. Was much cheaper when my child was under 2 but nevermind!

    I am looking for preferably the following:-

    1/ Flights from Doncaster Robin Hood Airport, would consider Manchester or East Midlands if we had to
    2/ 7 nights
    3/ Between 13th April and 18th departing - night flight fine
    4/ 2 adults and one child aged 2
    5/ Half board or all Inclusive
    6/ Preferably in Gran Canaria, wanted to stay at Maspalomas Tabaiba Princess however this may be too expensive now. Would consider Cyprus too - main factor half board or all inclusive and good for kids!

    Hope someone may be able to help!

    Can you leave on the 12th?
    Whats your budget?

  • Can anyone help with suggestions for a cheapie for me....

    Earliest departure date: Friday 4th May if late flight or 5th May if day flight
    Back by: 13th May
    Duration: anything between these dates from 4-7 nights
    Airport: Manchester or Birmingham
    budget: cheap as poss, up to £200 per person
    Two adults travelling
    Dont mind where we go, would like Algarve, Spain or Greek Islands, though Algarve I think would be a top choice.
    Like eating out, walking, relaxing - nothing too taxing.

    I found a flight to Faro from 7th May - 12th May from Manchester for £83.98, but cant find cheap accommodation.

    Any suggestions would be great.

    Thanks, what a great deal!

    Only problem is, we went to Menorca last October, and though we had a great time (lovely beaches etc), it seemed geared to families and not for couples. Could I be really cheeky and ask your advice on the Algarve please?

    Thanks

    Hi there, i am looking for prices for 2 adults, one 3 and half year old and one one and a half year old to fly from scotland to Trinidad airport in bolivia?

    bit of a long shot I know! We would want to be there for approx 3 weeks, and the holiday is to take place in Spring 2009. I hope that is not too far in advance. we don't mind stopovers etc and appreciate that we would need an internal flight from La Paz or similar to Trinidad in Bolivia.

    Thanks in advance.

    Hi, Can anyone tell me which airports I can fly to bulgaria from?. Finding it hard to find. Scottish departures and English,(prefer nearest to Doncaster).
    Any site that tells you exactly which companies do flights to and from Bulgaria? Also if buying a flight seat is there a jump in prices within July this year.
    Thanks in advance
