Did you remember to factor in your checked luggage? You only get a 6kg hand baggage allowance with TCX/MT.

Each 20kgs checked bag costs another £25 per person each way. That could be another £100 on your pricing.

Many many thanks Mattr5 for your help with booking my holiday. The saving you were able to obtain for me is greatly appreciated, as is the helpful advice you gave about the holiday itself and the requirement for a visa :T

I've made some additional changes to my booking and Mattr5 has been an absolute diamond - both in getting the changes made without a fuss and in helping me to make additional savings - highly recommended :j:beer::T
