Holiday for one?

Hello, just after a little advice and help.
I'm fed up of this country and the weather and so I've decided I'd like to go away next week. Unfortunately all my friends are either skint or going away with boyfriends so it's just me!

Could anyone please help me find a cheap holiday leaving next week anytime on or after the 23rd June, for 7 nights, preferably all inclusive and definitely somewhere hot for just one person with one checked bag? Preferably flying from East Mids or at a push, Birmingham.

I've tried myself on the usual places such as ice lolly, but I'm not sure how reliable this site is and it seems to be based on 2 sharing?

Thanks in advance :)

    do it all separately - sort out your flights first. Do Ryanair or Easyjet fly anywhere hot and sunny from East Mids? Jet 2 fly from East Mids, so does flybe and flythomascook I believe.

    Once you have your flights sorted, head over to travelrepublic, holidaynights, expedia, etc etc to book your accommodation.

    Then your insurance and transfers, and you're done. It will be cheaper than trying to find a package for one, as packages tend to load underoccupancy charges on you as a single traveller.

    hi there,
    not sure if you have looked at the single holiday companies . but ive been using one called friendship travel for a few years now. you can fly from east mids (i do) and they have loads of places to go. i reccomend the era hotel in turkey. all inclusive and the hotel is block booked so everyone is in same boat.

    oh yeah and no sharing...you get your own room and no single supplements
