    Shops have sales, it's the same thing. You picked when to buy, nobody forced you. Prices go up and down all the time. Would you moan at Tesco because bog rolls were 'on offer' and 10p cheaper they day after you bought some?

    But didn't you make a concious decision to pay for the services of an agent rather than do the work yourself?

    It amazes me that people look on the web after they bought the holiday, surely the time to do so is before? Once you have booked any type of travel arrangements, stop looking for a cheaper price, its too late.

    I'd check with the travel agent. This happened to me once, they had a 24 hour cancellation policy though so agreed to refund me the difference. It's certainly worth looking into.
