We want to go to New York for a long week-end, leaving Friday morning and landing early on the Tuesday morning (no later than 9am), either on the 3-May w/e or the 24-May w/e. We want business class flights (must be flat bed) and will travel from any London airport. Hotel must be well regarded on Trip Advisor - the Giraffe is just an example of the type we like.
Thanks in advance for any info / quotes.

Hi All

All inclusive
Egypt, Sharm,
St Georges Three Cornes
Transfers included.
From Birmingham
With Going Places

No air flight meal.
Can anyone beat this, we can go anytime in October up to mid November and from most UK airports.
Thanks

Hi Whizzy - it wouldn't let me PM you
Do you specifically want to go to that hotel/resort?
The reason I ask is that I just did a quick search on Eclipse Direct and found two random examples:
AI at El Wekala in Taba dep B'ham 4 Nov totals £1151.74.
AI at Kiroseiz Three Corners in Sharm dep LGW 6 Nov totals £1356.06*
*edited to add - this seems odd - it shows price on initial page as £1627 but when you click further shows total price as £1356Hi All

PennyPurple,
Xcapewithus.com have four and five star hotels in New York for the 2-5 May from £455 (3 nights, 2 adults, room only).
There's the 5 star Millenium U.N Plaza for £455 or the four star Millenium Broadway (which gets a 4/5 rating in Tripadvisor) for £475.
In total there's over 20 4 and 5 star hotels available for under £900 for 2-5 may, I didn't check the other dates though I' guessing the results will be pretty similar.0
