    I've just booked it too!

    Me, hubbie and three sons for £897 on 9th December from Brum

    Does seem too cheap. Fingers crossed it all works out. Feel bad about boys missing an exciting week at school but if all goes well this is a once in a lifetime opportunity and our last chance really as eldest is at high school next year.

    Hope to see some of you there.

    Hi i just rang them about my airport being wrong and she changed it to birmingham no bother she said she had a few people ringing up today as lastminute had a glitch on their system yesterday. i was asked what price i had on my confirmation email and when i told her she said thats what she also had but thought it must of been a mistake. anyway she said it was all booked and my card had been charged £598 for 2 adults and 2 children 9th dec so see you all there i'll be the mam with 3 kids in tow lol
  • Sounds like we may be lucky then. How lovely to get a bargain. Need to save for all those trips now. How much are you budgeting for trips and activities for the week?

    Woohoo!!! Here we come.

    book the husky and reindeer trips through inghams, they are cheaper than when you get out there, there are the super and the mini safaries, I would go for the super as long as you don't have little children with you

    that's an excellent price shop-to-drop, it's so exciting isn't it?

    you must ensure that you are all prepared for the weather, it will ruin your hols if you get cold, inghams hire out suits, this is much cheaper than buying it all yourself.

    congrats everyone, lapland here we all come

    it is snowing there, loads by the looks of it

    I am really tempted to book a cheap deal but I think it will spoil the xmas week that we are going to, think I will wait until half term time to see if there are any other cheapies about

    It is exciting especially as the only holiday we had this year was a weekend at Center Parcs and we all got a terrible tummy bug and so had a terrible time.

    We will be prepared for the weather, we lived in Ottawa Canada for 2 years and so still have lots of cold weather gear and will know what bits to buy that we don't have.

    Will look at booking those trips I guess they will send me paper work fairly soon ?

    We are going to see Santa at Harrods in a couple of weeks time so we can give him a heads up of our visit then. I am going to ask grandparents to give my boys money to spend in lieu of Christmas presents.

    Can't wait to try skiing again and see if my 10 year old can still ski. He was 5 last time he skiied in Ottawa.

    Now I have to go tell school!:eek:

    Thanks for the links tips and advice everyone. This will be a trip to remember and we wouldn't have done it if it weren't for you all.:T

    wicked one shop-to-drop, it will be an amazing holiday

    as for the trips, you can call inghams and book them with them, they will give you your vouchers when you get there and then you book your dates when there
