If you’re bored and have a few minutes to spare, please could you find me a cheap, solo, last minute holiday …

[JMSA]

I’d be so grateful 🙏

Here are the musts:

flying from Edinburgh
a beachy holiday
all-inclusive, half or full board
a decent TripAdvisor rating
flying after 19th July (could actually be on the 19th, if an afternoon or evening flight) but I MUST be back by the 30th at latest
one week, though I could do 5 or 6 days if it wasn’t too far

Please don’t think I am being lazy! I’ve spent hours of my time looking into holidays. But I can’t get much cheaper than the £700 mark, and I thought someone might know of a hidden gem/bargain.

Thanks a million.

have you tried love holidays?

I’ve done a quick search and £700 for a week seems like the cheapest available. Or £550-600 for 5 days, like PP’s link. I don’t think an “old style” bargain can be found anymore, not with how flight prices have been this summer anyway…

Does it need to be catered?

Thanks everyone. It didn’t even occur to me to use ChatGPT, so good shout there.

Loveholidays has been my ‘go to’ holiday search app so far.

Yes, I have learnt that last minute doesn’t equal cheap! The main reason I’m so late is that there was a hold up with my passport renewal application, but I have it now so can book up.
