    Hi,
    The Mrs & myself won a weeks holiday in Atlantis Holiday resort Bahamas Paradise Island.
    We have been looking to buy our two teenage girls the same week.

    The company we won the holiday with contacted the tour operator & has given us some flights & room only basis for the girls.
    Atlantis Royal Towers Hotel Bahamas Paradise Island.
    Room only Basis.
    Dates
    21/10/2011 to 28/10/2011
    Price for 2 Adults (for room only) £1063

    Flight Details :
    Fly with BA. Heathrow to Nassou International
    Depart Heathrow 10:30 on 21/10/11
    Arrive Nassou 15:05 hrs 21/10/11
    Depart Nassau 28/10/11 22:05 Hrs
    Price of flight : £1862 (total)

    Therefore Total price for the week for 2 teenagers = £2925

    Can anyone beat these prices please.

    Thanks,
    Bobi

    Can be flexible a couple of days either side, would go from any Scottish airport, and also Newcastle or Manchester - and will also consider a different , decent hotel , however it must be in a quiet family friendly resort, don't want to be in Party Central !!

    Looking to get this booked up over the next few days
