doing it seperately seems much better! My only concern would be the issue of transfers especially because im normally used to go Countries which use a language I can speak lol
What d'you guys think about transfers from hotel to resort ?
your such a great bunch its delightfu lto find people who go out of their way to help you! In london all im used to is brushing past someone on the train and getting grunted at lol
also would you guys suggest I get insurance form thompson ??
WOW ive just noticed that saying three adults are travelling returns the hotel at around 300 wheras saying theres 2 adults and a 15 y o returns results around 700. Surely I could just say my sons an adult :-sMerry Christmas MSE!0 -
Doing it via Thomsons then adding flights and transfers is often the best of both world but I always book hotel and flights seperatly and the language issuse isnt a problem even if the taxi driver doesnt speak much english just show him your hotel voucher and you will get there.
That second deal I posted does inc Thomsons transfers by coach from Paphos to the hotel I added it because its only £15pp return you would be hard pushed to get it cheaper
Dont use Thomsons for your insurance search on https://www.travelsupermarket.co.uk a 2 week policy shouldnt cost no more than £10pp a 1 week about £6pp
Most companies would class a 15 year old as an adult but I agree its often cheaper to inc kids as adults because of under occ. supplements and a 3rd adult gets a reduction but using Thomsons hotel or other hotel bookers you pay per room.
I have just booked mine for 26th June First Choice wanted over £1700 for the 2 of us I have booked flights with xl and hotel direct its come to just over £900 for the 2 of us for 2 weeks in SantoriniIf you look anything like your passport photo....Your too ill to travel0 -
saveapenny you've helped me so much i feel the need for a virtual hug *hugs*
I would love to go for the deal you posted however my only concern is the adult / child issue. Do you think there could be a problem later on if I did in fact class my 15 yo son as an adult?Merry Christmas MSE!0 -
Sorry just noticed this
The elevated position of the Atlantica Bay makes it unsuitable for less mobile guests.
This hotel is part of the Thomson Gold selection, which has been designed specifically for couples, therefore we do not accept bookings here for children under the age of 16. Please see the A-Z Guide for more information.
I will search for another hotel
As long as the hotel as not got ages ristrictions its fine to book a 15yr old as an adult
