    I'm looking at one week 27.10-03.11 at the Pestana Casino Park Hotel in Funchal , Madeira from glasgow with first choice (flights with thomas cook/thomsonfly) B&B. 2 adults (twin room) £856.96

    i'm able to go any week between the 25th oct & 8th nov, would travel from any airport, take 1/2 board or b&b and prefer a double room.

    can anyone beat that price at that hotel?
    Don’t ask what the world needs. Ask what makes you come alive, and go do it.
    Because what the world needs is people who have come alive.

    The only 2 thing that are flexible 1 the departure and return dates which must be between Jan 10 and Jan 25 2009 and 2 the departure airport as we will consider flying from Manchester - however as we will have hotel costs in Manchester there needs to be a good saving on the package price to make the journey to Manchester worth it.

    Would it be better to wait until a few weeks prior to departure in the hope of getting a better price?
