    Or we can get the same package with direct Virgin flights (would be preferred) for £2768. If you can get direct scheduled flights, or one change at London, for less than £2768, I'd be very interested! we can be flexible on dates, but can't go earlier than 26th June. Happy to go for 18 nights too, if price is right.

    Thanks

    Hi All,

    My brother has tasked me with finding his and his girlfriends holiday (cos he knows I'll get him a good deal!).

    They are wanting somewhere that's warm in March, with things to do and fairly near some form of night life, not crazy but a few bars etc. She has never been abroad. They have been recommended Tenerife or Lanzerote - having never been to either myself I'm not sure.

    This is for a week in March - they then want somewhere to go for 2 weeks at the beginning of July - happy for suggestions for both.

    Their quote so far

    The Quote itself:£440 per person
    Who the quote is from: Unsure, one of the high street travel agents
    Is there a booking fee: Unsure (brothers quote, the only price he said was £440)
    The Tour Operator/Airline/Hotel:
    The departure Airport/Post: This departs from Manchester, but happy to depart from Manchester, Leeds/Bradford, East Midlands and then Birmingham/Liverpool if a good deal
    The Holiday Dates: 12th March or 13th March for one week
    The number of people travelling (inc kids ages):2Adults
    The Hotel (or * if it’s allocate on arrival): Hotel quoted was Fiesta Hotel Paraiso Flora but it doesn't have to be this hotel
    The Board (self catering/half board etc): All Inclusive (means they can manage money more!)
    Any specific requirements: as above regarding things to do etc
    Is an in-flight meal included: probably not needed - unsure if this quote includes it

    Hi, wonder if someone can assist with a trip to Disney Land Paris for next week.

    I had hoped to go posh and stay at the disneyland hotel but the 40% offer is not available on much anymore, so its getting too expensive.

    I have a quote for hotel, park tickets and half board, but will need to add to this the eurostar (and if poss tickets to st pancras from our local station)

    We are flexible about what disney hotel to stay in - but the closer to the parks the better.

    We dont need as many park tickets as they often give you ie we would like them for mon-fri and hotel for sun-fri.
