Beat My Quote! Travel Agents Thread

greg123_2

Hi Agents,

Wonder if anyone can help me find something similar to this:

The Quote itself: £355.78
Who the quote is from: Travelsupermarket/Virgin
Is there a booking fee: No
The Tour Operator/Airline/Hotel: Virgin/Ramada Maingate West
The departure Airport/Post: London Gatwick
The Holiday Dates: 2nd March, 2011, 7 nights
The number of people travelling (inc kids ages): 2 adults
The Hotel (or * if it’s allocate on arrival): Ramada Maingate West
The Board (self catering/half board etc): RO
Is an in-flight meal included: No idea

Essentially there is me and my sister traveling to an event which has a flexible date, so we won't be able to book till about 2/3 days before. We need a last minute deal, the virgin ones look ideal. We would need either a 2 bedroom suite or a twin, would pay a little more for a small suite or 1 bed apartment room/family room, but not much as we can manage in a twin! I have previously spotted a £450 Virgin flydrive with hotel, self cater room, car hire, baggage and transfers which looked absolutely ideal in a little budget inn (but seperate bedroom/small kitchenette) but can't see anythng like that now.

I'm looking to travel likely from 23rd this month (just over 2 weeks away...) to mid march if it's delayed, I'm looking for someone who has fingers in Virgin (or other) last minute pies and could book something last minute for me, or find something for a fee etc.I'd also pay a bit more for B&B or half board, but if much in it I'm happy enough with bottom budget economy as we'll be out/eating out most of the stay and it is really only a way to get us there an to get a bed, akin to Travelodge here would be absolutely fine.

I can travel from any midlands or London airport.

If anyone specialises in these please feel free to PM me.
Thanks in advance,
Greg.

spoke to them, they said the operate like this
"pay the full/total balance of say £1300 for your holiday", but if prices change, etc then we just bill you for the rest ?????
So you pay a full Total, and then a total total, and then whatever else they decide to charge on top after you already paid your full total!
Oh well, what a rubbish company!
Best i keep looking!
