    I am looking to spend a week in paris with the family (two adults and two children 3 and 5 years old) during easter. Although I am not very fussed about the hotel star rating, clearly it had to be clean and as close to paris centre as possible. I have been searching for a week now and this was the best i found (i looked flights and hotel separately)

    Can anyone beat a quote for a cruise?
    I have been quoted by Iglu Cruises as follows:
    3 adults in 2 inside cabins on Celebrity cruise aboard Constellation ship. Depart 18/9/10 for 7 nights around the Med.
    Cost for 2 sharing £767 each and £1156 for single occupancy of other cabin. Prices include flights from Manchester.

    We are new to cruises but like Celebrity but any info appreciated.

    Many thanks
