    Hello

    The below price will not included any transfers or bags, OTB leave these off and charge extra for these once the holiday is booked, its very misleading but they do this. There are various threads about this on here. What you will find is that they will most likely charge 40pp extra once this is booked, for you transfers and baggage

    So this price isnt correct

    Thanks

    Hello

    OTB will add extras to this cost, you are likely to see that once this is confirmed they will ask for payment for baggage on the flights and transfers. They will charge you a 2% CC charge also.

    This quote is in fact not correct, I will send you a PM

    Thanks
