    Hi Fondue

    I can do this like for like on the T Cook flight for £2494 saving you £300

    There is also a flight out at 8am getting back at 2pm and on that flight I can do it for £2307 saving you £437 - both of these are based on a SELECT apartment still - if you did a standard apartment you can save a bit more but thats up to you

    If you do that 8am flight that saves you a massive 16% - and we can do a low deposit - ABTA/ATOL Protected G9172/6053

    NB I'm off this weekend as Im going to Amsterdam so here today until 7pm then back in Monday 9am

    I am a Travel Agent
    Ive sent you a PM

    My company’s ABTA/ATOL numbers are G9172/6053. MSE doesn't check my status as a Travel Agent, so you need to take my word for it. You can check my ATOL with the CAA. This signature is here as I follow MSE's Travel Agent Code of Conduct.
  • Thanks Matt- turns out the company i was dealing with look a bit dodgy and price has changed loads when i come to book. Do you have any recommendations on other hotels (prepared to stretch budget) or other holiday quotes can be flexible on dates to day either side if that helps ! Thanks in advance.

    Check Mercury Direct - they have some good prices those dates and you can get 3% cashback at least

    Good Luck

  • Ok 2 weeks ago today (Sunday) we found the quote below for our party. It had dropped down from the price it was a couple of days previously. Went into work the next day to confirm my leave, but when I went back to book, the price for all of us had jumped by £450. Since then, the price has increased steadily (has dropped slightly some days, but never as low, then back up again soon after). Feel like I'm playing Russian roulette! Would be grateful for any help matching this quote or at least some advice as to whether it is worth waiting for the price to drop as low again....
