    I've just checked and it charged me £60 for my cabin

    and flights from manchester were £700
  • Rather annoyed at the person who made the call and alerted Thomsons to their error. I tried to book after several hours of umming and ahhing and holiday wouldn't go through. Blast! Should have been less indecisive. Well done those of you who managed to grab a bargain.
    Proud to be dealing with my debts
  • Be aware if booking flights. Even if you have a booking reference they can still cancel right up until the last minute. There are loopholes within the terms and conditions. I used to work for a Thomsons travel agents and we sometimes found silly prices like this nine times out of ten Thomsons cancelled the trips. One as late as the week before.

    Especially as they are now aware that there was a potential misprice!:mad: :mad: If no one had called them then are they may not have noticed as it is all computerised booking systems now.

    Good luck to all who got booked, its a lovely area to visit:beer:
  • BTW If it does come back up you can book a child on an adult ticket - This is common to do especially on late deals as they used to regularly come up more than the adults price:confused:
  • just called Thomson out of curiosity
    It's the golden rule for any online misprise - do not call until it has clearly been rectified, if at all! :rolleyes:
  • So? Has anyone actually booked their flights yet?
    And, if we did, & Thomson then cancel, what's the chance of them covering the cost of the flight?

    agree with above, I hope everybody gets away with it but I doubt it.
    Thomsons will have T&c regarding web prices.
    Please don't book flights till the last minute
