MAJIC Posted February 12, 2012 Share Posted February 12, 2012 I realise you are doing a public service to tv members,but have you actually booked at the Internet advertised price? I have seen this kind of deal many times,it's actually non existent,you can't book online,and when you phone up to book,the price has shot up to nearer £500 pounds. Sorry but in my experience it's just another advertising ploy,to get you to phone them, but I really hope you can prove me wrong? Just phoned this company from your link,fares are now £489,(and that's a long term booking) told the agent that wanted to press ahead with a booking,that I will not deal with them,on principle! the agent didn't reply when I asked if these low fares ever existed?

Fair enough. Then it seems it is a ploy on their behalf. If so, my apologies for posting it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ricardo Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 The fare is stated to be for a maximum of 180 days, but the return-flight (8th January 2013) appears to be more-than 180 days after the outward-flight (13th March 2012), perhaps that's the catch ? It certainly would be a wonderful fare, at the price quoted, thanks to the OP for the heads-up anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
