Package holiday honour price

I have booked a package holiday Flight and hotel package.The deal was incredible and I am convinced it is too good to be true. I have since tried to book for friends and the price has gone from £2000 to £10000.
I have received confirmation an ATOL certificate also been able to book my seats on plane. The problem is at the moment your operators are not concentrating on future travel and I am worried when our time comes. They will cancel or charge me more. Any advice

Possibly, but your post lacks detail to comment further.0

What are the T&Cs of the booking? They will undoubtedly have something about pricing changes or error. Usually for package holidays there'll be a clause that they can increase the price by a small percentage (under 10%), and if they need to increase it by more than that, they will give you the option of cancellation for a full refund.0

That's the downside of an 'it's too good to be true' deal - it might just be, but you won't know until the time comes.
I'd just sit tight and hope the gamble pays off - worth a little bum-clenching for a £8k saving!
Best of luck.0 -
Check your terms for both when the contract is formed and pricing errors.
The fact its jumped up suggests its an error and you'll get a pay the extra or full refund email at some point. Travel pricing is complex though, we paid £750 for a holiday originally sold for £3,000, a few days later the price went down to £650 (damn) next time I checked it had gone up to £1,100 and after that it said sold out.0
