I'm not a travel agent but enjoy a cruise. You're cheaper going direct to Thomson website - for same cruise with same cabin on website you are looking at £1304. If you go for deck 1 or 2 inside cabin it is £1234. If you fancy a window/port hole deck 1 & 2 is £1332 and deck 3 or 4 is £1430. Keep an eye on website cause prices do go up and down slightly.

Some thomson cruises offer drinks package for £49 - excellent value.

Hope this helps.

Hi,

I have had several quotes for this trip of around £1800 per person. We would really like to get it closer to £1500.

3 People
Flying from any London airport
Travel first two weeks of October 2012.
3 Nights in Las Vegas staying on the main strip on one of the nice hotels
10 Nights in Hawaii (two islands, 5 nights each).
2 nights in San Fransico (this can be a cheap hostel/B&B).
(in any order).

Thank you

Tasha
