    I'm confused as to why there 2020 holidays have increased by £250+ in the space of 3/4 days. Is it to do with Black Friday approaching? I've been watching the prices closely

    Hi Louby40

    I CAN beat this for you

    I think you may have a point with the Black Friday deals approaching so maybe hang on

    The price for April 2019 (same school holidays over Easter but going from Gatwick) has now been reduced to £1497 - that's a £549 from '19 to '20 increase which seems dodgy to me.

    Think we will hold fire and wait to see if they drop back down.

    Hi Louby40

    I think that's the right thing to do - these things go up and down and if they dont give money off it on Black Friday they may do around Boxing Day - or it could just go down of its own accord - depends how well that date sells
