    hi

    i wonder if anyone can beat this quote please?

    The Quote itself: £684.10
    Who the quote is from: Lastminute.com
    Is there a booking fee: No
    The Tour Operator/Airline/Hotel: American Airlines/Seralago Hotel Main Gate East
    The departure Airport/Post: London Heathrow
    The Holiday Dates: 31 October 2011,14 nights
    The number of people travelling (inc kids ages): 2 adults
    The Hotel (or * if it’s allocate on arrival): Seralago Hotel Main Gate East (would go for the Holiday Inn Maingate East if around this price)
    The Board (self catering/half board etc): RO

    This is available from lastminute.com for a few £s cheaper with a different airline but it is travelling too early in the morning for me to make it back from work and get to the airport in time

    Thanks
