Who to book with?

I am planning on booking my holiday today (all inclusive to Sharm) and I have 3/4 companies all offering a similar price. I was just wondering if anyone has any comments to pass on who would be the most advisable to book with? I have only ever used Travel Republic before so slightly wary about the rest.
Any advice would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance for your help!

Freedom Direct
Travel Republic
GreatLateDeals (are they the same as Travel Republic?)

    Greatlatedeals are part of Travel Republic, they use the same ABTA number. Travelrepublic are a really good company and have won loads on industry awards.

    Freedom Direct have been around for a while and are also pretty good, you would be safe enough with them, they are also ABTA members.

    Uktravelshop are part of Freedom Direct group of agents that in turn are members of the Co-op so your money is safe as they are also ABTA bonded.

    I work in travel and would happily book with any of these, I would book with the one offering the best deal
