    Hi Kevin

    As said before its hard to beat Thomsons as their online discounts are so huge - but I can beat it by £158 so our total would be £5070

    Everything else like for like and still booked with Thomsons - we will provide a personal service helping you submit Passport details, check in online, chase Tickets etc etc a;ll for free plus if you collect the Co-op Dividend points we pay you these as well
