Best website for holiday offers?

Hi all,
I would like to go on beach holiday somewhere warm. For sake of ease I want to book flights and hotel. In true MSE style I thought Id let the special offer dictate my decision on where to go (as long as its warm!). However all the website Ive gone on force you to fill in the destination in the search form. Can anyone recommend a good site which lets you choose which airport you want to leave from (Exeter) and nothing else? Ill then order the holidays by discount and see what the best deal I can get is.
Thanks

expedia is probably the best i have found
you will always pay a premium going from exeter though , i live in cornwall and never choose exeter as too expensive , bristol although further is cheaper even with extra travel and parking0 -

118 Travel lets you select 'anywhere' and even 'best xx month'.
I think Travel Republic and On the Beach have a deal finder on there website which lets you pick anywhere too.Lea

It depends on how many people the holiday is for. If it's just for you then most package holiday companies a useless as their business model is built around couple and families.
For singles, EasyJet holidays can have some good deal (though check prices for flight and other hotel separately too) and I've had some fantastic deals though British Airways in the past, though they tend to be better for city breaks rather than bucket and spade destinations.
I also like http://www.alpharooms.com/ and have used them many times in the past without any problem.
You'll find that your options from Exeter are fairly limited but if you could make it to Gatwick or Bristol you'll have more choices.0 -
Thanks for the great tips guys - Ill check these out later. I did notice that there werent many deals flying from Exeter.

This is a list of all the airlines that fly from Exeter. Please be aware that many may only operate in high season summer months.

Stick with well know brands - don't go for the tin pot companies that no-one has heard of, as it usually ends in tears!!
Get your price from the website and book over the phone - that way you know it's booked there and then - might cost you an extra fiver but its worth it.0
