    Who the quote is from: Thomas Cook
    Is there a booking fee: No
    The Tour Operator/Airline/Hotel: Thomas Cook/Hotel Volcan Lanzarote, Spain, Canary Islands, Lanzarote, Playa Blanca
    The departure Airport/Post: Glasgow/Lanzarote
    The Holiday Dates: 19/06/14-03/07/14
    The number of people travelling (inc kids ages): 2 adults, 1 child (aged 15 years)
    The Hotel (or * if it’s allocate on arrival):Hotel Volcan Lanzarote
    The Board (self catering/half board etc): B&B
    Any specific requirements:
    Is an in-flight meal included: Yes

    We're flexible on dates, can depart up until 25th June, also if savings are big enough we would consider travelling from airports in the North of England as well as Scotland. Also, we don't have our heart set on this hotel in particular, so if something of a similar level is available at a good price we'd happily consider it.

    Thank you for taking the time to check this for me. :)

    Edit: The above quote included travel insurance and transfers for all three of us.
