    We are looking to travel to Sharm el Sheikh in November and had a price from Royalties Gold of £1,044 (Thomson package) however when we phoned back 2 days later it had gone up £400!

    Therefore the cheapest I can find online doing it ourselves is:

    The Quote itself: Flights = £582 (Flyglobespan + 1 bag), Hotel = £431 (Hotelopia less 10% Quidco), Transfers £20. Total = £1,033
    Who the quote is from: Flyglobespan/Hotelopia
    Is there a booking fee: No
    The Tour Operator/Airline/Hotel: Most tour operators offer this hotel
    The departure Airport/Post: Glasgow
    The Holiday Dates: 21/11/09 - 28/11/09 (or 22/11 - 29/11)
    The number of people travelling (inc kids ages): 2
    The Hotel (or * if it’s allocate on arrival): Tropicana Grand Azure Resort
    The Board (self catering/half board etc): All Inclusive
    Any specific requirements: Would prefer the Thomson flight on the Sunday 22/11/09 however probably going to be more expensive
    Is an in-flight meal included: No

    Willing to consider flying from other airports only if there is a significant cost saving that would not be swallowed up in travel costs to that airport.

    Thanks in advance
