Im waiting to book for next year with a holiday company and there packages for 2010 dont come out until July, so I'd imagine they're all the same.

is that each Sue, if it is thats not bad. if for all 4 bargain but assume it would be out of peak times.
Aegean say they come out on 2 June (i think it was) and dont imagine they'll be much less than that each for peak August travel.
Thing is i've only just paid for this years, and never have the spare dosh to pay for next years when the cheap flights come out, as mostly you have to pay them all upfront.
Wish
ICR could do that with the flights i.e. some form of paying flights within 4 months of booking or something like that cos its not the accommodation thats dear really its the flights.
Thats why we did a package this year it gave a bit of breathing space.

Bev the reason we do not take deposits for flights anymore is because we do not have teams of people to chase monies up and also to chase people nor solicitors to take people to court when they decide to cancel their bookings.
We cannot cover the losses of peoples that do not go.
We pay up front so everything is covered
Accommodations and transfers are ok to pay a deposit on and in fact our regulars book their accommodations and transfers from us for 2010 in 2009 and we do not take deposits from them until the end of January 2010 so giving plenty of breathing space

HI Admin,
Its appreciated that there is a deposit for the accommodation etc, have used it myself in the past.
Its the flights these days that are the dear part especialy peak August season when its approx £1200 ish for 4 people.
Its just an idea for the future perhaps, here's hoping anyway.
Course once the kids have left school it will be soooo much easier and cheaper, August will be avoided at all times.

if you nip in quick, you should be able to pick up a bargain for August 2010 flights - Aegean's are on sale now and you can book them through the usual
ICR number or directly with Aegean
with a bit of luck, you should be able to get all 4 return for just under £800
