    I am sure the £50 code can only be used on holidays £500 or over,so you will need to add flight meals then use discount code.
    So think it will be £462.

    Part of the Furniture 1,000 Posts Name Dropper
    Just another alternative for cazziej, how about Majorca?

    Flights: a1travel.com

    Manchester (MAN) To Palma (PMI)
    Flight Departs UK at 1445 Flight lands back in the UK at 2120

    £166

    Accomodation: travelrepublic.co.uk

    Ola Panama Hotel - Palmanova
    2 Adults TWIN
    ALL INCLUSIVE £291.34

    Total price £457 (plus transfers)

    I looked at Palmanova as it runs into Magalluf, plenty to do there for 18 year olds, but being in Palmanova not right in the middle of it all. there are plenty of cheaper all inclusives in other resorts starting at around £230.

    Finally, not treading on anyones toes I hope, but while looking at Mallorca I stumbled accross some other Rhodes flights. thomsonfly.com 2nd-9th May £188 for two. Quick look at the waterpark hotel savepenny suggested for those dates its £224.38. That comes in at £413 (plus transfers).
