Hi Kate I’m in Turkey right now on a Jet2 fam trip so bear with me but what’s the duration 

Sorry forgot that bit, 10 nights

Lol no problem.  Ok I can do that for £100 less total than Barrhead so £1361pp.  The current jet2 web price is £5623 and I’m £5423 so £200 cheaper than direct with jet2  All booked with Jet2holidays so so you can use their App etc  I’ve assumed the lead in room which is the Large room with Direct Pool Access via Stairs 
im back at my desk Wednesday if you can wait.  If not If you message me your number I can get a colleague back I. The UK to book it for you. Deposit is £240 total.  I work for Midcounties PTA ABta G9172 part of coop. 

It’s a fab hotel by the way but read that room type description. It’s not a pure swim up room from memory some of them have stairs.  But it’s not major just pointing it out 
Matt 

 

Thanks for coming back so quickly - later in the week is fine, I need to get the time authorised off work this week anyway

Thanks for pointing out the room type, I've looked and that's ok

Hi - no it all got a bit messy there didn't it - might have been my fault as I was away and replying from phone so not the best way
Anyway - Im out on this one - Im more expensive
The only thing I can suggest is go via Topcashback to Expedia to get 3.5% cashback 
And don't forget to get your Canada ETA

Hi - yes it is in fact its dropped slightly to £2604 direct with Jet2holidays so my price will be £2404 so I'm £200 cheaper than booking direct again  - all same as before so with Jet2hols, flts, 22kg bags, transfers, the lead in room on the 11th is the Large room with Direct Pool Access via Stairs
If interested DM me your email and I'll send you a full quote/terms to check/agree
