We always book flights and accommodation individually. This yr was our most expensive at a cost of £50 each for 8 days in Mallorca from Bournemouth. Have a look for cheap flights then look for accommodation. Mallorca is the cheapest place in Spain to self cater :-)

Nice of you to come back and thank us. Believe me, MSE is the best site on the net....it has saved me thousands over the years.

When you come back from to Newcastle airport, phone your usual Newcastle taxi firm for a taxi rather than using the airport taxis which (like all airports are very pricy!). My local firm charges £10 from airport to home whilst airport taxis charge £18. Quite a difference and pays for a few bevvies in Ibiza!

Have a great holiday and watch out for strange women.

£8 a few bevvies in Ibiza, I wish! Try 18 euro a drink, 25 if you want vodka&redbull, it seriously is the most expensive place I've ever been.

If you managed to get a deal like that for Ibiza, I'd be over the moon with that! Prices seem to be going through the roof for Ibiza these days.

Second what Terry said about the strange women...

Enjoy OP, I'm jealous.

Please please don't tell us that he is actually using the airport carparking rather than one of the cheaper off-airport sites which are far cheaper and then taking advantage of the cashback sites!

Money Saving is a frame of mind.

Have a great time.

Hmm, I'm actually not sure where he's parking it mate. Do those off-site carparks have good security yeah? He's rather sensitive about his car :P

Pretty cool deal here for crete for anyone in Newcastle, still won't let me post links so add the required text to the link :P £128pp in a decent hotel

I have never had any bother at all with any off-airport carparks, and indeed the airport parking at one UK airport (not Newcastle) is notorious for thefts and break-ins. The ones for Newcastle are just up the road towards Kingston park and they operate a quick and efficient shuffle to and from the airport.

If you have not already done so, read up on cashback sites. here's a link to one but Quidco and GreasyPalm are also worth checking out.
