Any help much appreciated. When I looked last month on direct holidays this same holiday was £200 cheaper!!

Thanks in advance x

hi hon, unfortunately the holidays are going up. people are starting to book again and as the product is being sold, they dont need to discount anymore. the best thing to do is to take your quote to other agents, as most of them will price match where possible. the quote does however need to be on the day that you go into the agents, its unreasonable to expect a price match on a holiday that was priced up 2 or 3 days ago.

I used to work in Thomas Cook so thats how it works.

And although they are quite happy to price match, you just need to be realistic with what you are looking for. But then for all inclusive in turkey ( i believe thats a 4 or 5*) thats a good price. may be better to wait for peaks (ie; january sales) as all the best offers are then, ie booking discounts, free child places, free holiday money, free (inclusive) insurance etc.
hope you get to have a lovely (cheap) holiday :O)

Hi I hope one of you agents may be able to help. Flights only.

There's 5 of us. Many thanks. This is way more than what i was quoted about a month ago, prices seem to have jumped so any help would be gratefully received.

Hi there, was wondering if anyone can beat this quote for this week in Val Thorens, France? Departure airport can be any Scottish and board can be half board or catered chalet.
