    We used teletext to find the deal, then gave the place a quick call...think it may be the only way it can be done if its last minute.

    I picked up a great deal today going on Sat from https://www.latedeals.co.uk it is part of the thomson group, but I checked the price on quite a few other web sites and couldn't match it.

    Slightly over budget :( but a good bargain for 4*HB in a Thomsons Gold hotel

    Depart: Stansted (London) (STN) 16/06/07 14:00 Arrive: Paphos (PFO) 16/06/07 20:20 Carrier: Thomsonfly
    Returning:
    Depart: Paphos (PFO) 23/06/07 21:20 Arrive: Stansted (London) (STN) 23/06/07 23:55 Carrier: Thomsonfly

    Accommodation Atlantica Bay Htl 4T
    Destination: Cyprus (Paphos) Resort: Limassol Check-in: 16/06/2007 Check-out: 23/06/2007 Duration: 7 nights
    Board Basis: Half Board

    £573.94 total for 3 inc transfers
    go to Thomsons hotel section then add flights and transfers this way you avoid Ticket on Departure charge

    same holiday booked as normal holiday is £1239 thats why I thought it was worth posting.
    Try it yourself https://www.thomson.co.uk and click holidays to get the high price and same link but click hotels
