Hi Patricia
Thomsons dont have a flight on the 5th May from Belfast
Im going to assume its the Thomas cook flight - departs 1345 lands back 2345
So taking your price of £670.76 per person Our p[rice inc flights, hold bags, transfers, half board in a Sea View room is a whopping £140 less per person at £530 - and we can do a Low Deposit - this price is valid until tomorrow 30th sep only aas we have a sale on - after that its £540pp
There is also a Jet2 flight at 10am lands back at 20.15 and like for like this is £559 per person - still a big saving - but nicer flight times

Hi Beach Baby
Thats a fair quote tbh - they arent making a big profit on it at that price so cant really do much to beat it - id say book it with them

Hi Hollie
Ive checked a few dates in that range and tbh that £4500 is roughly our nett price so i think its a good price and id say book with them if none of the other agents on here does better than me. A lot of Caribbean prices are being adjusted following the drop in the £ vs $ so dont leave it too long to book

h/b is an option at an extra £940, think may be worth looking at this?

Hi Durham
Its a good deal and as you may have spotted from this threads previous replies Thomson are hard to beat on their own stuff on Late Deals and I cant really beat this one - I get £3263 on Half Board on their website and our price would be £3258 - £5 cheaper - sorry not very exciting
The only alternative you may want to consider is Playa Olid on All Inclusive same date which we could do £4036 - sounds a lot more but its less than £8 more per person per day so could be an option

Looking to book this week, ideally nearer £1k pp. Can travel earlier in Feb but this seemed to be the cheapest date. Thanks in advance!0 -
Hi Hazzp
The price is actually £2333 - £50 so £2283 as the £50 off is per booking not per person
I can get this down to £2168 for you
