She states it is one return flight free - my question is this normal practice when you win a break for two abroad that you only get the one return flight so you have to fork out for the other. Seems a bit tight to me.
i think i would ask them as the telegraph website says " All flights are included, courtesy of Monarch, to Faro from Birmingham, Gatwick, Luton or Manchester airports." If the weekend is for two people I would assume that there are also two flights!2008: £783.12 - 2009: £6,401.15 - 2010: £4,230.61 - 2011: £8720 - 2012: £2,041.89

I also won this holiday, and I feel it is a little misleading, not sure where we stand on this one. I have phoned up and the lady confirmed that it is one flight only, but the room will accomodate two people with breakfast if I want to take someone. The competition said all flights included. We have been sent T & C with this last email about the flights, but I cannot check the original T & C as the comp in closed.
Any suggestions anyone? Have checked flight prices and it will cost about £140 to fly out my partner and back.365 AF Day Challenge 32/365:T:j

original terms and conditions don't mention flights http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/showpost.php?p=38379298&postcount=2 but like you said the competition says all flights included: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sponsored/travel/algarve-spa-breaks/8087271/Algarve-spa-break-holiday-competition.html
Hope you both manage to get it sorted - seems harsh as to me all flights included would mean for 2 people!2008: £783.12 - 2009: £6,401.15 - 2010: £4,230.61 - 2011: £8720 - 2012: £2,041.89

Congratulations and enjoy!
ETA: oh dear! Just seen the replies about only one flight being included. Hope you get it sorted!If you have nothing constructive to say just move along.0 -

May have a result
Got this email this morning
Hi Abigailflo
Good morning from Portugal, regarding the flights there’s a misunderstanding that obviously you have flights for two people, Daniela will confirm that today. Regarding the dates you should contact the hotel and the airline, in case they have availability I really believe they will accept the change.
Our apologies for the misunderstanding.
Best regards"
Hopefully we have got flights for two people, so everyone who won this please email Luis and get him to confirm the flights are for two.0
