    OK we can do this like for like (the only date cheaper in Nov is the 29th and you can take £20 per person off these prices if you go that date but all the below assumes sticking with original date)

    So - still with Thomsons, same flights, reps, transfers, hotel/room - ABTA/ATOL protection - no booking fees on debit cards

    I will give you the pre-booked seats for FREE and beat you price by £10 so £3310 inc pre-booked seats

    or

    I will upgrade you both the Extra Legroom seats both ways and pre-book your seats for a total additional £40 so £3350 inc all that

    nb As i make these offers and dont hear back for days sometimes Im adding this - this offer is only valid today and tomorrow - after that add £10 per person

    Matthew - :beer:

    Just GREAT!!! I'm a pretty canny saver, but your prices were better than I could find. Really great price and tbh - much nicer dealing with you rather than tackling the clunky Thomson website.
    All booked - including seats! Couldn't have asked for anything better. Now it's countdown to the Honeymoon!:j

    I want to go to Bali (DPS) from manchester 6 adults with a stop over in Dubai for 3 days on the outward.
    With emirates there is a long wait for connecting flight outward so stopover going makes sense, traveling with my parents ( both in 70s) we require 3 rooms in a nice hotel close to everything.

    dates around 16-19 june 17 for 3 weeks.

    Hi butters_86

    I can SMASH this :) whoop!

    OK - If we stick with Jet2Holidays then I can either do it for £50 less so £2970 OR i can upgrade you to Private Transfers both ways for free - everything else like for like and same flights, reps, etc etc

    BUT - I have another flight that day - leaves 0900 and gets back 23.35 (ok i know its a bit of a late flight back) - bit on that flight I can do it for £2457 - saving you over £550 :)

    ALSO - I can do 11nts on the same date and on that one the flight gets back at 1400 so nicer flight and the total cost on that one is £2623

    nb both of these are based on a standard room - which will sleep 4 - whereas the Jet2 is a Large Annex room I think - we can always play around with rooms when you call

    Deposit on all these is same £60 per poerson and all ABTA/ATOL covered and no booking fees

    Booked our holiday last night with a saving of £600 when compared to the Jet2 website!! Excellent service and so quick and easy, was very impressed and couldn't recommend him highly enough to anybody on here.
