    Just wanted to say that @MATTR5 is such a treasure - I'd already found a few super cheap deals myself, including one with TUI that included an extra TUI discount for a child, but Matt stayed late on a Saturday night to get me another discount on top of the very cheap deal - such a friendly, helpful guy. Thanks Matt! 
    Awh Thank you x You were a pleasure to deal with and so glad I could save you that little bit extra x

    ive assumed the morning flights both ways and a 2 bedroom apt and that gives me your price on the app.
