2x adults - 13-19 May 2020 – LHR to Portland Oregon
Was flying direct with Delta and staying at the Hoxton - snug room- I had this all lined up to book with Opodo at £1150 (with £10 for standard care and the ‘cancel for any reason’ gtee) and then we had an internet outage.
In the time it took me to get to work the price has significantly increased to £1600
I have a very very tight budget in this one so checked in a few times before hand but suddenly all the direct flights are gone and the hotels have increased overnight.
Can anyone match the above quote? please - willing to book asap
(I should mention I am flexible ion the dates as long as I'm there for the weekend of the 16/17)
Total price: £10708
- Who the quote is from: Thomas Cook
Is there a booking fee: No
The Tour Operator/Airline/Hotel: Royal Caribbean
The departure Airport/Post: Southampton Cruise port
The Holiday Dates: 16th August 2020 for 14 nights
The number of people travelling (inc kids ages): 4 adults (2 kids
The Ship Anthem of the Seas
The Board (self catering/half board etc): All Inclusive
Any specific requirements: Next door to each other balcony rooms (2 persons in each room)
Can anyone quote for a cruise please? Thanks.

Thanks for the reply, I would looking to see if you could match or replicate the package? rather than beat it
Or did you mean you couldn't beat the sudden price increase to £1600?
Sorry for the further question
No I cant beat or match the £1600
