    I am attending a wedding on the 12th July and am flexible on which airport I travel from in the UK. Not sure if there are flights from Manchester but I can for from Gatwick/Heathrow too. Flexible on dates as staying with relatives but would like to spend around 2 weeks.

    Cheers
  • Can anyone better this price, for similar holiday fly from main UK airport LHR LGW, Man, BHX (cruise Vancouver towards Alaska and return, followed by rail tour around W Canada / Rockies - Banff, calgary, national park etc) - max duration 16 days.
    Would like to book in next 14 days

    Depart late Aug or any Sept (later the better towards end of Alaska cruising season)

    £1,042. for 2
    Ingrams
    Departing from Stansted
    28/6/08 - 5/7/08
    2 people
    Hotel Schlossli, Wilderswil
    Half board
    Twin ensuite
    Rail travel from Basel Airport to hotel
    Half price Swiss Card.

    Would have prefered single rooms but none available, must be ensuite. Any other hotel in the area would be ok, but want to fly from Stansted, unless there's a very good deal by Eurostar.

    Can anybody find a better deal?
