    Hi Matthew

    I cant beat this - Ive heard of people doing this trick before and being ok so it looks a great deal - booking direct with Iberostar its £1800 plus (roughly my price)

    I would pay with a credit card - swallow the fee just for safety and same with your flight - and do good insurance which will cover you if the flight doesnt go for any reason - but cover those things and your dandy and youve got youself a bargain

  • How much for a Pool View Bungalow from 02/04/2018 to 12/04/2018 for 2 adults, one 10 year old?

    We are staying an extra night in Havana now.

    I'm thinking booking from the UK may be a safer option., still undecided!

    Hi Everyone

    Just a reminder I will be away from today until the 28th September as I'm going to Mauritius to look at hotels (It's a hard life) so wont be around to beat prices or reply to PM's

    If you post a price to be beaten there may be other agents spot it and can beat it but as I'm the one who replies the most on here just wanted to warn you it will be slightly limited service.
    If its a Thomas Cook or Jet2holidays I can beat them like for like 99% of the time so maybe worth waiting for my return if no one replies.
