Hi

Have you cruised before? I would suggest knocking the tips off and paying when you are on board. Why pay for a service you haven't received yet?

We always say would you tip a hotel or restaurant before you stayed or ate there?

You can always tip the full amount on board if you like.

Hope this helps.

Hi, do we still have travel agents on here that can help with holidays? I Have an unepected week/ 10 days off and want a late break, i know Oct is very popular, weve had a terrible time lately and need this holiday!

• 2 adults, 4 children 1 baby aged 13 11 7 5 and 1
• leaving any one week before or during after Oct half term ( so kids will need a MAX OF 1 WEEK OFF SCHOOL inc holidays )
• travelling from any London for 10 - 14 nights
• Would prefer America florida late deal or LA (i know i know very booked up!?)
• Budget ~ best price we can get rearly we know its expensive , would consider indirect flights if timings were right but would prefer direct if possible (normally fly virgin~ but will consider anything to get us there!)

If anyone can help or any suggestions?

Many thanks

Hi

You would need to give us some idea of what price your willing to pay, the florida flights are mega expensive with the charter airlines for your dates

Thats just it i dont know, i was hoping i might get a late deal or cancellation a bit cheaper, i know our flights next easter are around 650 each just flights, im not sure what is a good price, we dont have a budget in mind, ive looked but cant find anything for that period.

Weve never done LA so not sure on prices there either, but have annual passes for Disney florida so that would save us a lot of ££
