Airmiles & club card deal combo

Posts: 54 Forumite
Having managed to save £405 in clubcard vouchers = £1620 to spend on accomodation and 3500 air miles for flight, I want to combine the 2 to cover most of the cost of my family's first "proper" holiday abroad.
Thinking Majorca flghts will cost 3000 airmiles + £700 approx. Then about £1500 deals vouchers for Individual Traveller apartment in Morer Vermell which is near Alcudia. Does anyone know Morer Vermell?
Is this a feasible combination - scared to book flight before apartment. Also apartment does not have pool or air conditioning but is 25m away from beach. All others don't meet my criteria of near beach & shops etc but not too near and 2 bedrooms from the clubcard deals options.
Should I throw caution to the wind book the flight & order the vouchers?
Big decision cos those 2 weeks holiday are some very much needed quality time with family.
Advice , others experiences greatly appreciated.
Thanks in anticipation.

if you used https://www.xl.com you might get the whole package for just your club card vouchers then use the airmiles to book a car?
It seems alot to have to put £700 to your flight
when are you thinking of going and how many?
Opal Corsa for 2 week is 3340
2 weeks HB in June for 2 adults and 2 children under 12 is 1234.00
use the rest of your points for airport parking
Just a guide because I dont know your dates
or if its August 2246.00 HB but you would still have to put 626 but getting HBIf you look anything like your passport photo....Your too ill to travel0 -
