  • Well my heart sang when I saw that price!!!! But, and its' a big BUT, the flights aren't available. This is the problem I have been having for a few weeks now - great offer or just a reasonsable offer, it doesn't seem to matter. When you go to book the flight isn't there. I've had the same problem calling people off Teletext. I thought that it was just small time companies but now Air France have done it - this is just a nightmare. Can anyone help me pleeeease!

    But, big thanks to Vikash for spending the time and finding me a great deal - shame it was too good to be true!:T

    HI

    good point. But surely ATOL protection doesn't make that *much* a difference to the price?

    I don't really know, obviously...

    Can people give me their best quotes for the Atlantica Imperial Resort in Rhodes? I'll open up the dates, travelling anywhere from the 1st/may to the 17th/may for 7 nights....
