It was on the Direct Holidays website last night - I have checked today and it's now gone - typical :rolleyes:
On there now is the same holiday but going from Birmingham for £1051, I'm not too sure of the baggage allowance but it's not giving me the option to add another 5kg.
Edit - I just called Direct Holidays and they are offering it over the phone from Manchester for £1037 inc 20kg baggage and a family room.0 -
