in Overseas holidays & travel planning
If anyone can spare any time in helping me I would be very greatful.

Without going into it please take my word for it that me and 2 for my children (aged 6 and 7) need to get away today for a week.

I have looked at tons of holiday sites but they do not seem to list anything for today!!! The worst offender being lastminute dot com!

I have looked at flight checker and flights from liverpool to malaga are coming out at just short of 200 each which leave at 1.00pm and then we would have accomadation to find!

Travel repubic want 2 days notice so they are no good. Some where nice with a pool and hopefully all inclusive would be my first choice but would take just somewhere with a pool anywhere hot and busy.

The weather in Malaga is showing 25 to 27 which is why picked up there but anywhere hot would be great.

I am currently in chester so could fly from Liverpool, BHX, EMA, MAN or for the right price and a late enough flight I could drive to London.

This s all on the credit card so budget is just damage limitation!!!

Thanks in advance.

Nikki xx

    At such late notice it's one of the times I'd walk into a travel agency and just book.
    Another couple of good sites would be the teletext holiday pages (wide range of operators) and travelzoo.co.uk

    Thanks for these.. bookable sun has nothing leaving today.

    Do you know of any sites that list what is leaving today to anywhere?

    cheapholidays needs to know what airport / where you want to go etc and when I can fly from so many and am prepaired to go to so many places its so time consuming! normaly I do not mind but am in a hotel room with 2 children acting like caged animals with a singing pigeon on the TV!

    Thanks

    Good advice given before I would go down to Travel Agent they have all the contacts. Tell them you and kids not leaving till something booked. That's what I did, tongue and cheek but she soon found me something, as kids runing riot in the shop:rotfl: Good luck
