To ask how much you’d expect to pay for a holiday

7 nights, 4 or 5 star, out of school holiday season, all inclusive. Two adults and a baby.
We’re pricing it up next year and I’m really surprised at the cost - what would you expect to pay for this?

Yes, I’d expect at least £3k, I’m afraid.

Depends where and who's definition of 4/5star it is.

For a start long haul going to be significantly more than europe. The UK airport you fly from can make a difference. But Tunisia is going to be a lot cheaper than the same standard of hotel in Spain or carribean.

UK? Europe? Worldwide? Economy / Business / First Class travel?

More info needed!

Start at a few thousand...

Europe, economy travel but nice hotel with all inclusive restaurants as well as buffet.

1500 per adult seems about right

Okay, we’re looking at nice hotels short-haul for the sake of short flights. We can’t do better than £1500-1900 per person, baby does travel for free. Seems standard then!

I mean in Spain not Dubai!

About £2k

thedendrochronologist · 21/06/2024 19:44

£1000 per adult minimum for somewhere ok/nice

£1500 for low end lux.

6-10k? Depends on the location really. I’ve never been because of the cost.

Nw22 · 21/06/2024 19:44

5000

£1,000-£1,500 per adult. I don’t have a baby but I think sometimes they go free?
