  • Can anyone beat my quote for:

    2 adults travelling from Newcastle to Magalluf, Majorca, staying at the Sol Magalluf Park Hotel, for 7 nights.

    Departing and returning any day between the 4th July 2008 and 18th July 2008 (any 7 night period between these days)

    I have been quoted £450 per person including flights, hotel and transfers. Its half board, but would also be prepared to stay at a Self Catering hotel at least three stars.

    I still liked it better the old way.Quotes were posted on the board so everyone could see what they were and if it helped others in this process all the better.This way is not working and we have been saying this for god knows how long but its like banging your head off a brick wall as nobody listens to what you are saying.

    I agree with that statement and that's not anything to do with no one PMing
    me regards my quote - well maybe a little!

    I would gladly say thanks if someone could get it cheaper tho!
