    Thanks butters_86

    Its great when we save someone a load of money - Jet2holidays, Thomas Cook, Thomson(not late deals), tend to be ones we can beat but even I was surprised how much we could save you by just altering the flight time a small bit

    Glad I could help and hope you have an amazing holiday :)

    Thank you Matt you saved me £130 on my holiday to Mexico - shame I didn't respond to you sooner as you could have saved me £418, I won't delay next time. Thanks for the work you put in - I'll send you a postcard. Cheers Vicky

    I've been checking late deals, but they seem to be always for 2 adults....

    We are 2 adults 2 children 4 & 2

    I'm looking for a late deal somewhere hot (canaries?) to go after boxing day 5 nights or 7 is fine but be back 1st week in January!

    Not looking to spend a fortune, it's just a mini get away

    Self catering is fine, but will go all inclusive....

    I would go as far as mexico if the price was really good....

    Thank you

  • I know I am going off target here but I am going around in circles trying to find a super late last minute holiday anytime from 27th Dec. Thomson seems to have sold out of most things and anyone I am phoning is quoting silly prices, so I was hoping someone might be able to help please.

    I have filled in my wants and am happy to look at options. My requirements are HOT, min. 10 days and I have to be back by/on 14th January - NOT Egypt, Europe or Morocco.

    Could any agent help please?

    The reason you are getting silly prices is because the flights are all full basically

    I'll keep my eyes peeled and message you if i see anything
