  • Thinking of going to Egypt this year, and have been recommended a specific hotel...

    Thomson package
    Tropicana Grand Azure Resort
    in Sharm El Sheikh, Egypt - Red Sea
    2 adults
    11 nights on All Inclusive
    London Gatwick flights (Thomson):
    Outbound 13th May 13:50
    Return 24th May 22:10
    Superior twin room
    Transfers included but no in-flight meals nor extra baggage
    Total price: £1,427 (including £15 Quidco cashback)

    In particular we're not fussed about having a 'superior' room, so happy to amend room type if that helps save money (but Thomson and FC didn't seem to have any normal rooms available). Also, happy to amend dates to pretty much any time March to May if it reduces the price. Cheers. :)
