    Any specific requirements:Daytime flights, quote based on departing Gatwick 0700 and departing Antalya 1430.

    The daytime flights are important to us as we are travelling with children. If there are any quotes that are significantly better with a different but equal quality hotel we would be willing to consider it. We loved the CD as it was a true 5 star experience and wouldn't want to go anywhere that didn't measure up! Fussy, i know!

    Thanks very much for your help and suggestions.
