    I dont think your going to get much cheaper than what Thomas Cook have to offer leaving from Newcastle on the dates you want unless one of the TAs on here can undercut it a little.

    I doubt very much if you would get it any cheaper than what you already have as its an excellent price.Remember though your flight prices didnt include baggage.

  • I've been quoted £1724.80 per person for 2 people in a Deluxe Oceanview Stateroom with Balcony on the Brilliance of The Seas 12 night Mediterranean Venice Cruise departing from Barcelona on 13th October 2009. Quote includes air fares from Manchester Airport.

    Can you beat it??
