    Hi lynseyg43

    Yes we can beta this

    I'm guessing you mean 18th of June as thats a Saturday and ties in flight time wise

    I can do like for like with Jet2Holidays for you for £30 less so £1654

    Pre-booked seats will be additional cost of £55 total which should be the same as them

    Hi Sumeet

    There arent 3 extra legroom seats together on that flight - you cant go in the emergency exit row as you have a child

    But we will beat their price like for like whatever options you add

    Sorry Ivrytwr3

    I'm not even going to look at this - if youre budget is £3000 then you need to find a holiday around that price for us to beat - we cant get a £4200 holiday down to £3000 - if i could do that i'd be a Magician not an Agent
