We tried to book one and were given a phone no. for A1 Travel...when we phoned we were told that the holiday was £150 more expensive than it was shown on the icelolly.com site due to the air fares had increased..silly me assumed as it was online it would be a live price  ??? ???
We booked it cheaper through Alpharooms for accom & RA  for flights. Good old Ryanair  ;D

Oh really Hev? That was a pity. A friend of mine told me about it. They managed to get away for three days to Portugal for €99. The deals seem to be better from the UK than Ireland. My (Residential) Complex is on it. ;)

these are the same holidays that are on teletext holidays.A1travel,monster travel,purple holidays.the price shown is without baggage,or transfers.nine times out of ten,when you phone up you are told the flight price has gone up and the price increases.basically you only get the holiday for the price you could get it by booking flight and accomodation yourself,or slightly dearer.the exception to this is lowcost holidays,who sometimes get deals on accomodation,such as cay beach villas,and then you do get a bargain.that is my experience anyway.if a deal seems too good to be true,it usually is. :(
