« on: May 16, 2007, 06:05:30 PM »
Me and Vlad are desperate to get out to corfu this year but we're so so poor ! lol

Who do you guys book with to get to arillas ? Do you use tour operators or go directly with people in Corfu ? We need a bargain here ! :D

Our holiday is booked through Nancy at Corfuescape, we paid £189 each, thats flight, taxes, transfers and accomodation, couldnt find cheaper than that and i though it was a very good price!

I think the price for holidays in October go back to that price this year, obviously from end of May to September the price increases.

Have a squiz on her site, no harm looking :-)

Also dont forget, keep your eyes peeled on Ebay as she sells some on there if theyre not selling, and they normally go for real bargain prices!!

Just check the tour operators websites on a regular basis. The prices continually change. I booked the Horizon with Libra, luckily I waited a week to check I could get the week off work because the price had dropped nearly £100 in just a week when I eventually did book.

Definately recommend Corfu Escape, I believe their slogan is something like 'now you can afford that 2nd holiday'. They are excellent value!

We always look in the travel agents windows and up our local airport.

In the past we have left it until a few days before and picked up some real cheapies, that is how we found Arillas a couple of years back - we had been to Corfu loads of times before but never heard of Arillas.  I think we paid something like £159 for 14 days B&B at Bardis Sun Hotel.  Didn't know what to expect at that price but boy were we surprised.  Pity its not that cheap now they are back with Thomsons!

I think they have wised up on last minute holidays as they dont seem to be cheap any more.

I hope you get something booked!!

We too booked through our local airport(thomsons).
We thought we got a reasonable price but now looking at others i think we could do better 'lol'.
Will try harder next year.
