  • I am looking for multi-stop flights for 15 passengers. We want to fly from Manchester to Las Vegas on either Friday 13th or Saturday 14th September, spend four nights in Las Vegas in Bally's hotel, then fly from Las Vegas to Orlando on either Tuesday 17th or Wednesday 18th September. We have villas booked in Orlando so do not require accommodation. We then want to fly from Orlando to Manchester on either Friday 27th or Saturday the 28th September.

    So far the best quote I've had is with American Airlines at £746 per person (that's just for the flights).

    Can anyone help me to bring the price down? I would prefer not to pay more than £700 per person.

    Thanks!

    Hi Everyone - I would Advise anyone and Everyone on here to call Directline on 020 3589 4253 - They have managed to beat my lowest quote for 3 holidays in the last 4 years. They provide good service and I recommend them to anyone.

    The above number is for a local office I think and not the national call centre - the people are very helpful!

    Hi,

    Looking for a holiday around 17 July give or take a few days, flying from either East Midlands or Birmingham. OH would like to go to Cay Beach Sun in Playa Blanca Lanzarote, for 11/12 nights. Cheapest price we have is £1426.52, self catering. We could do A/I if the price is right. This is for 2 adults and 2 children, age 13 and 10.

    Many thanks.

    Hi if that includes all the hold bags and transfers id say its a fair quote. If it doesnt PM me as we'll be able to beat it - All Inclusive adds about £1100 to the total so £100 a day for all of you - hard to say if thats worth doing or not
