Hi Jack
This holiday is not available mate, the flights are not there from London. Virgin have flights but the are around 1000pp for AI
There is a Manchester flight on the 22nd but the price is alot higher, I read something on the Forum about Ice Lolly advertising lots of deals that when the customers are ringing they are just not available
Give them a call to clear this up
DelHi. Yeh its £707 pp. Im in Midlands so actually any airport is good. a couple of days either way. Have not spoken to icelolly yet... waiting to see if i can knock it down a bit.
Im struggling to find LGW flight on the 22nd
I can only see a flight from manchester, have you spoke to Ice Lolly about this holiday?
Im assuming that this is 707 per person
Del Jamaica in March! Beat this please :OD
