    Hi all,
    I've used this site previously with success so I was wondering if anyone can beat the online price for my mum and dad's holiday next year.
    Two weeks in Hotel Riviera, Benalmadena, Costa del sol.
    Flying from Cardiff on 18/03/2008.
    Half board status.
    The online booking price with Thomson is £660 per person.
    Anything better price wise would be appreciated, ie a promotional code etc.
    Many thanks.

    Hi all!

    To get fastest results/best help...please title your posts thus...(I did PM martin & he agrees with this).

    1-HOLIDAY QUOTE PLEASE. Use this title if you are looking for a holiday quote/ideas, or are just starting to look.
    2-BEAT MY QUOTE-I'M READY TO BOOK!! Please use this title if you have had a quote, ARE IN A POSITION TO BOOK, & simply want to see if a better price is available than the quote you have had.

    As said on earlier threads, it's a busy time for Agents-phones are going mad-no Agent really has time to help with holiday ideas, rough quotes wtc-after all we have to make a living. Now if there is a post with the 'BEAT MY QUOTE-I'M READY TO BOOK!!' then you will get replies from Agents (assuming they can help!!!)-as it'll be a 10 minute or so job to check for you. PLEASE PLEASE be in a position to book any quote FAST-prices do go up & availability changes.

    Also make sure that the price you want to beat includes ALL charges. For example if the quote does not include transfers/flight meals-please make this clear. The quote you want to beat should include any booking fees/credit card charges if they are levied.

    Margins are tight in Travel-please help us to help you!
