Thinking that a cruise might be the way to go for hols this year.
Can anyone beat my prices so far.
I've got a quote from vacations to go (in dollarsmind you) for a
balcony oceanview stateroom at $4088.72 from Barcelona for 2 adults and 2 children leaving Barcelona 13th or 20th July 2008.
I have to purchase my own flights from Belfast (or Dublin) but have only found Jet2 at £596 for us all.
I would have to fly out on 12th or 19th July and find a hotel for the night before.
My husband thinks this is still too high but I'm not sure. Any other offers please.2p or not 2p? That is the question!0 -

There are 5 of us going to Palma, Mallorca from 27 Dec 07 - 01 Jan 08.
I hope I'm posting in the right thread here!
We're looking to book accomodation for the 5 of us. We'd have 2 adults in the first room, and three in the other room.
We'd obviously prefer something as cheap as poss, included meals would be a bonus, however we want something clean and secure (from reading reviews on tripadvisor.com, many of the 'cheaper' hotels in Palma seem to be risky with lots of reports of stolen belongings, room safes forced open etc!).
Any advice from those who've travelled to Palma before would be much appreachited!
Note: We've booked flights already. We're also prepared to stay outside of Palma if this means a better deal!0 -
Hi
I am looking to book a weekend away for myself and OH for my birthday. We can go any weekend in November or maybe the first weekend in December.
Not fussy where we go, but don't fancy Paris. Can go Friday to Sunday, or at a push, Thursday night to Sunday.
Prefer to go from Manchester airport, but wouldn't rule out Liverpool.
Would like all inclusive but beggars can't be choosers!
Total budget is a measly £300, for both of us, for everything!!
Big task, but I am sure somebody is up for it!!
Thanks in advance.

I dont think this thread works. I have asked Martin to go back to the old way of doing it but he wanted to gove it time.
Best to post on main board as well because me,sloppy and other bargain hunters cant post in here with deals can only PM but when most people dont even PM you back to say if its the cheapest or not or to update the post to say its booked it makes you not want to botherIf you look anything like your passport photo....Your too ill to travel0 -

Hi there,
I have been a user of the site for a long time however only just started posting.
As a travel agent it's difficult to find the time to get on the site and reply to users who have queries simply due to time!!
If anyone wants quotes i am based in belfast and can get ex Uk and ex Ireland contracts.
We specialise in long haul and dont deal with the package side of things meaning we are more suitable for packaging things up ourselves and tailor making.
Please feel free to get back to me and i promise I will try to reply!!
