…next October, getting quotes for around 4 – 5000 for the four of us. I’ve just recieved an e-mail from a company called travel planners.co.uk., which is quite a bit cheaper. The website looks legitimate, but I’ve never heard of them – anyone on here familiar with them?

edit – ah – missed the space you had in the domain name!!

Here’s the registration of domain name…

Cheers Rachel. They’re not massively cheaper (a few hundred rather than thousands less) but I’m still a bit wary about using a company I’m not familiar with. Having said that, the young Nigerian lady I spoke to was very nice, and apparently, some sort of a princess!

Well, they’re legit, Abta registered and all the rest, and I got a deal for nine hundred quid less than all previous quotes. Result!
