When you book a holiday with a flight and accommodation, did you:
A) book with a travel agent or tour operator
B) book all the elements yourself, online (ie used one website for flights another for accommodation.
C) Mind your own business..Nosy Parker!

Usually B, though I sometimes ask Avant Garde to see if they can beat it.

Sometimes with B though it is the same website for flights plus accom. If that works out better or cheaper.

I've been known to book a complete holiday with Virgin but then not use the accommodation (hire a villa instead) as their holiday prices were cheaper than their fly-drive.

B) It works out cheaper then paying flight supplements because we live in Scotland, we use Ryanair a lot.

Travel agent for beachy holidays (like to spain, greece), separate for others.

NotQuiteCockney · 30/04/2007 22:19

Um, it's not rude of people to not get drawn in to a thread. Sometimes they're all busy. Sometimes they're all somewhere else. It's certainly not worth getting huffy about!

We always do B). Largely because we never stay in hotels, always rent flats or similar, and apartment hotels never seem very nice, imo (or included in any flights+accom deals).

Hulababy · 30/04/2007 22:21

B - although not necessarily lots of different websites; some elements may come from same one. I look around and work out best deals.

Wotzsaname · 30/04/2007 22:23
