Travel City Direct + Virgin Holidays

paddyposh

I have been told Virgin own them, they have 2014 holidays for Florida out now up until April IIRC. What is the difference between booking with them, and booking with Virgin? Is it just that with Virgin Holidays you get the hotel rep who meets you when you arrive?

Tempted to book up with TCD now, although VH release 2014 apparently in about a months time (source:VH on Twitter).

What do you reckon?

Would't book with either. They both strike me as hugely overpriced most of the time. DIY for me every time. Book flights, hotels and transfers separately, with the help or SkyScanner, Hotels4u or the hotel direct, and resorthoppa or suntransfers.

TCD used to be cheap but their prices seem to be not much cheaper (and more restrictive) than Virgin now.

As above, the best value to Florida will, 9 times out of 10, be DIY.


Edit:
Oh, BTW, you've had replies on your other 'Italy trains' thread, but you don't seem to have bothered responding to those.
