Quoted £378 each for 2 adults to fly on 2nd June returning on the 16th June from Qantas (they have a sale at the moment). Would prefer to travel end of August if the offer can be matched for then, say the last 2 weeks of August? Flying from any London to Hong Kong. No accomodation needed. Thanks!0

The only reason I have chosen Benidorm is because this came out by far the cheapest place. If you know of anywhere in that week that is cheaper we would go anywhere qt all in Spain - husband is reluctant to go to Benidorm as he likes a more traditional Spain (and he likes to use his language skills) but as I said it was by far the cheapest holiday.
I am also interested in booking a summer holiday. Thhis is what I have found so far:
