Hi gdbhoy
I can beat the Thomson one but only by a few quid - the code throws me out - you'd be better of going via a cashback site - i can show you how when you call if unsure
But I can beat the Jet2hols one like for like by at least £100 and I may be able to save you a few hundred more if we jig a few things about and also I'll upgrade you to a Private Return Transfer for £80 if you want (Jet2hols want almost £400 to do this)

Looking at 5* Hotels (would be great to have a spa on site but not essential), 1 room (Single and King/Double), All Inclusive or Half Board and transfers all included.
Budget of around £550

Hi Sainstcouple
You've definitely found the cheapest price on an afternoon flight - I cant save you much but like for like we would be £1858 - all with Monatrch Hols so same flights, luggage, reps, deposit £59pp etc
The morning flights are tougher - the only one I can see is Thomsons from Luton on 25/6 at 07.15 - but Thomsons want £2400 for that (this does inc a private taxi the other end and free select your seat) so its a fair bit more - the best I can get that down to is £2348
So unless you really really want a morning flight the Monarch looks the best deal so give me a shout if you want to book
