    Hi Deleted_User

    I can book that for you with Jet2hols so all like for like for £144 less so £2639 total - You could also do 6 nts same dates - Direct price £3153 and I can save you £154 on that so £2999 for 6 nts all inclusive - and no booking fee or card charges on either option 

    I can't help you with a search - I just work by Discounting - but Jet2 have some good prices on Azure by Yelken in Turkey, Kipriotis Village in Kos (part of the same complex i think), Globales Binimar,  Cala'n Forcat, Menorca so maybe have a look at those - again I'll be cheaper than booking direct 
    If you want to book either option come back to me by Monday lunchtime as their £50pp off sale is due to end Monday nt midnight (it could get extended but its a risk)

  • Hello, my partner and I are planning a last-minute trip to the Dominican Republic, we have narrowed it down to several hotel options, so I hope it's ok to ask about multiple.

    Answers to general questions:
    • Holiday Dates: 5/9/23 - 19/9/23 (overnight flight arriving 20/9/23)
    • Flight Operator: TUI 
    • Departure Airport: Birmingham 
    • Destination Airport Punta Cana
    • Is there a booking fee: No
    • The number of people traveling: 2 Adults traveling as a couple, no preference as to whether the room is two beds or a king, as seems to be common in the Dominican Republic.
    • Board: All Inclusive
    • Is an in-flight meal included: Yes
    • Any specific requirements: No
    These are the Hotel choices:
    • The Hotel: Lopesan Costa Bavaro
    • Room Type: Junior Suite
    • Quote Itself: £1618pp (£3236 total)
    • Who the quote is from: Holiday Hypermarket with Bluelight Card £30 discount
    • Includes: Transfer (shuttle) and 2 x 20kg checked bags.
    • The Hotel: Dreams Flora
    • Room Type: Junior Suite
    • Quote Itself: £1499pp (£2998 total)
    • Who the quote is from: Holiday Hypermarket with Bluelight Card £30 discount
    • Includes: Transfer (shuttle) and 2 x 20kg checked bags

    • Who the quote is from: Love Holidays with Bluelight Card £25 discount
    • Includes: Transfer (shuttle) and 1 x 20kg checked bag.
    I'd be interested to know if any of those quotes can be beaten or if there are any quotes within a similar ballpark that would include a swim-up room or preferred status upgrades. Thank you so much for your time.
