Beat My Quote! Travel Agents Thread

racp500

I would like to go to to the canaries for between 3-7 nights, departing at some point between 14th and 21st march. There are 4 people travelling. I do not want to spend more than £150 per person. (I don't really mind what star hotel/apartment or even whether it is self catering)

I have been quoted for 3 nights half board in costa del silencio, tenerife.
flying out from Manchester on 18/03 7am, flying back from Reina Sofia at 2am on 22/03. The quote is £138 per person.

Can anybody help to beat this quote?!

The thing is with this one is they are saying on the web site the full amount must be paid now!
