    Looking for an agent to beat our quote please.......
    • Desired destination(s) Miami or Fort Lauderdale
    • Which airport/ports? Any London or Manchester
    • Holiday Travel Dates. Wed 21 Jan 09 or Thur 22 jan 09
    • Duration of holiday Returning Mon 02 Feb - afternoon flight
    • Number of people travelling 2 adults
    • Type of holiday? Board basis? – Flight only as we are cruising from Fort Lauderdale on 23 Jan 09 returning 02 feb 09
    • What your price range is - best quote £417 - getting into miami late at night - not good idea
    • Whether you require an in-flight meal. Yes
    • Are night-flights or stopovers acceptable? Yes no more than one stop over
    • Any specific requirements As cheap as possible
    Would prefer to fly into Fort Lauderdale but don't want to arrive to late in the evening - same for Miami as we then have to find a taxi to take us the 30 miles to Fort Lauderdale.

    Would also consider a flight with 1 nts hotel accommodation in either Miami or Fort Lauderdale, flight back must be PM as we don't dock until 8am.

    Thank you
