    Sorry more missing the bl33ding obvious!
    Manchester to Palma

    Just went to Thompson and choose flights.....if thats the cheapest I'll get then I'll book them.

    On a seperate note they are £100 cheaper at Monarch (same dates roughly the same times), but I've heard THompson are better than Monarch, any opinions?
