Blimey! Expensive hols this year.

Just started looking to book a holiday and prices are about £200 pp dearer they were last year.:(

We want just a week somewhere warm in a 4 or 5* hotel, half board and we can be flexible on dates but would like to go in June.

We'd also like to go from Norwich airport.

We have always been happy with Thomson holidays but they are SO expensive this year.

You may well find that a supplement for the convenience of flying from Norwich will outweigh the cost of having to travel to and from Gatwick or Stansted and of course your options from Norwich will likely be more restricted to begin with.

Oh yes, I realise that Incapuppy. We know we always pay over the odds but it is really convenient. However, we paid about £400 each last year and it's £600+ each this year for similar holidays.

We also pay an extra £5 per person "development fee" for the privelege of flying from Norwich Airport. We're paying them for "improving" their airport. I think they're the only airport who make this charge. Terrible really!

Cruises are getting cheaper.

Theres not a lot flying from Norwich in June ! Malta, Turkey or Mallorca + those Specials Richard mentioned.

On a £400pp budget you could "self package" , flying to Antalya or Dalaman in Turkey with Thomas Cook.

ie 4 or 5* hotels with https://www.roomratecompare.com such as Grand Cetia Hotel, Marmaris (All inclusive + no 1 on tripadvisor)

Thanks budgetflyer. Going to book Croatia I think.
