The cost of holidays to Turkey

[jackonews]

you have done very well there i make the transfer £90 ,the accomodation £350 thats £440,so that makes the flight £85 , now i have been looking for 3 months or more and can not find a deal like that,SO has there been a dramatic drop in flight prices or did you get a lower deal on accomodation.
something has got to give soon because talking to so people i know in the trade the bookings for holidays are ZILCH.

I booked mine DIY. 2 weeks in June staying at the Kurt Apartments cost me £525 for 2 with transfers.

Good deal you got there. My holiday in August for 2 people for 2 weeks

£140 for flights, £190 for a 1 bedroom apartment,grand total £360 or £165 each, booked it in June last year.

Stil have transfers to get but will book them soon through ICR for £90? i think,fab deals available if you look in the right places

once again a very good price.i have just costed out a morning flight from manchester 30th june with ***** morning,which i know is my prefered timing,BUT by the time i had ticked baggage and seats,no meals ,no insurance required it came in at £522,same flight last year £320,(exact day,time etc).
the prices been mentioned for apartments are very cheap as well ??
I have come to the conclusion that the major tour companys dont want us on there flights because we are not booking there accomodation,so jack the flights and baggage charges etc up and you then start to add up what deals they are offering,

OH i am so frustrated this year,nothing booked and can not see us doing at the moment,by now we have usually got june and september all booked and put to bed,and would be on countdown.

I paid 700 ish for 2 weeks b&b @ Efes Inn, through a tour company.

Tried booking it DIY but it was 680ish just for the flights, so it was a no brainer.

I could have got cheaper flights, but we fly from humberside and can't be bothered with driving to manchester, but even then the flights from there were about 600 notes.

Last year we paid 400 for the same deal (albeit for a week, but it was about 80 quid more for the fortnight) same flights and dates.

Crazy how prices have shot up.

Wish I'd booked my flights when I got back from icmeler in september they were so cheap then with agean, but left it to late waiting for other people to decide if they were coming away, ended up they arent now. I still only paid 525 for both us but could of got it even cheaper. Think the flights were only 125 for this june then.
