Cheap deals

Hello,
I've been looking for cheap packages or flight and hotel in Europe in Oct. There are deals on icelolly and on the beach for example.

They say they use 'no frills flights' from Liverpool, so I assume Ryanair. When i check the price with Ryanair directly its about £10 more expensive, plus the credit card fee of another £10. The hotels quoted come in at the same price

Now I assume that the websites will say that the price has gone up, but they also have different flight times (an hour after the ryanair flight).

Has anyone been on these holidays, do they use Ryan air or their own airline, if so what is it?

Out of interest if they do use Ryan air, and give you the holiday cheaper than you can do it directly with hotel and airline - how? What exactly are they making their money on?

    Be very careful with OTB. They often quote a price then once you book, contact you to say the price of the flight has gone up.
