Beat My Quote! Travel Agents Thread
What’s this about? This is a special thread where you can ask all the Travel Agents and MoneySavers who frequent this board to beat a holiday quote you have and get personalised replies.

The next line then reads: "The Mexican Embassy in the UK recommends passports be valid for at least 180 days because this is the longest you can stay in Mexico as a tourist." ok, so that has now…

reasonable adjustments ? flight cancelled
We’ve just been told our flight for August 2026 has been cancelled and offered several options, but we have a severely disabled daughter they are aware of, and I don’t think any of these are lawful reasonable adjustments under the Equality Act.

Air BNB question
Up to now I've generally avoided Air BNB because I'm not really comfortable renting and staying in someone else's property that they still live in with all their personal possessions around. For this reason we always book dedicated holiday cottages/apartments etc. However, I've recently noticed a couple of holiday…

Have a look at Coverwise…

Using credit card at atm overseas
I understand that if I use my credit card overseas at an atm, interest is payable immediately on the amount. How can I pay off that amount immediately. I mean if my cc bill is 2,000 and I take 100 cash at an ATM, how do I pay off the 100, but not the 2000? 🤷

Wrong name on airline ticket
I have booked two flights Manchester to Rome in March 2026 via a well known agent. As soon as I booked I noticed my wife's first name was completely wrong. I hadn't written the wrong name, it must have auto generated but perhaps I didn't spot before confirming, or the system changed it after. I can't recall because this…

Ryanair and printed boarding passes
Can anyone tell me unequivocally whether they no longer allow customers to print boarding passes? This seems draconian (if typical). I have seen it stated that they are only stopping the facility for customers to ask THEM (Ryanair staff) to print boarding passes at the airport.
