    Are you stuck with these dates?
    Be careful with OTBeach as there has been alot of bad feedback/reviews about them recently on here and Holiday Truths.
    "Life is not measured by the breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away."
  • Yep, work in a school so these are the earliest dates i can consider. Not good , but hey ho! Seems like a lot of money, cant quite bring myself to press proceed at the moment!
    Will check out OTB as you said, I do know a couple of people who have travelled with them and not had problems but will have a look anyway.
    Thanks.
