    Thomas Cook have an online Reserve and Collect service which allows you to fix at quite a good rate online and then collect from your local branch.

    You pay when you collect in the branch (I paid in cash) but you have to collect the day you place your reservation (or the next day if you do it out of office hours) Just make sure the branch will be open when you plan to collect it.

    At the time of writing their rate is 1.2361 and this will probably stay in place until about 9.30 am tomorrow morning.

    Hope this helps.

    What the benefit of that, if they can get a similar rate on the island?

    Current Mastercard rate is 1.263910€.
