  • Hi, changed plans from a cruise to something a bit cheaper..

    Can anyone beat this please:

    Location: Lanzarote, H10 Rubicon Palace Hotel, All Inclusive
    Duration: 7nights
    Departing: BRS, no inflight meals, or sitting together required, flying with Thomson Airways (would consider the TCX flight on same day, if it's cheaper!)
    Cost: £800 total price (£400 each), however I can get £15 cashback with this booking, bringing it to £785 total.

    Many thanks

    Ellie

    hi,

    i'm looking for an all inclusive 7 night break leaving from gatwick from 21st october for 2 adults 2 children (5 & 7) in any canary island thats going to hot hot hot. I've been searching about and they seem to start from around £1200.. Just wondering if anyone can get it any cheaper? I can be flexible in the departure date of +1 or 2 days but not before the 21st.. Oh and 1 of the adults is over 65yrs old if that makes any difference.

    many thanks in advance :)
    It only seems kinky the first time.. :A

    no, i have said we will do hand luggage only as its 10kg with ryanair and i will buy my sun creams once through security. Did this last year and it was great, its surprising how many clothes you don't actually need on holiday!
