Hi
I am looking for the best price for flight only from any London airport to Harare. Leaving 24/07/2013 and returning on 12/08/2013. I am flexible by 1 day either side. This is for 1 adult only.
My best quote so far was from Emirates for £760 on 10/06 but I delayed to pay that day and now it has gone up to £960
I am looking to book immediately or by Friday 14/06 the latest because I don't want to risk it going higher. I'll be paying by credit card.0 -

Hi we are looking to go to Tenerife for a week over new year but the prices we are being quoted seem very high, I wondered if anyone can help bring the price down a bit. We are looking for:
7nights All inc at the Bahia Principe Costa Adeje, leaving from either Manchester, East Mids or Doncaster. Traveling are two adults one child (5yrs). On or around the 27/28th Dec.
We have got a couple of prices the best being £3200.
This does seem high to us as we have done the same hotel at new year on more than one occasion in the past and never paid more than 2k although I do suspect we did get a child free place.
It doesn't have to be that hotel but we would like a a similar standard one 4/5* although we do like this hotel so it would be nice.
Thank you,
Pete.I'll get me coat!0
