    Hi all, bit of a different one but I'm a bit desperate for the sake of my absolutely devestated little boy. I'm just returning from Leeds Bradford Airport after our package holiday has been cancelled due to today's runway incident. I've promised my boy to try and find an alternative and I'm sorry if it doesn't fit the way this thread works but I'm short on time and desperate! 

    We were originally going to a 4 star spa hotel in Corfu which I got for an unreal price of £1400 for 2 adults and 1 child (Age 10, free child place) so my refund is going to be roundabout my budget. 

    Can anyone find any late deals for tomorrow (Saturday 21st Oct) flying from Manchester for 7 nights to somewhere warm? Ideally Corfu, or Greece, or Canaries? At least a 4 star, pool, half board minimum, transfers included. Tall ask I know but I'm setting my phone on fire driving down the M62 trying to find something with 3 soaking wet suitcases packed in the back ready to go and all I can find is £3k, £4k with the package holiday operators which is way beyond my means
