    Can anyone beat this quote? (we're not definitely travelling on these dates but seriously considering it):

    Aberdeen - Majorca flying on 23rd July, for 1 week
    Staying at Pollentia Club Resort on an all-inclusive basis
    ETA kids are 3 and 6

    Best quote I can find is £741 per person (there are 2 adults and 2 kids). I'd need it to be less than this, somewhat. These quotes are with travelsoon.com and ulookubook.com

    I can't get Thomas Cook website to come up with holidays flying from Aberdeen....

    Also pref. a travel company that we can pay some now, some later (as we have in the past with Thomas Cook).

    Many thanks!

    Hi all
    I'm so annoyed with myself! I got a great price with thomas cook for iberostar averroes in tunisia yasmine hammamet from manchester. It was only £3656 for 4 adults and 2 children age 5 and 2 for 24th July 2011 for 2 weeks all inclusive. By the time I had decided to book it, it had gone up and now it is £4596!!! Im not sure what to do and whether it will go back on offer!! I could kick myself! Anyone any ideas or advice?? Any Thomas cook employers know whether there is as good chance it will go down again?
    Thanks
