Flying out of Southampton and into Milan
Around 7 nights in Genoa, Italy in a hotel with a sea view
Leaving sometime on or after 17th October and returning before Nov 4th
Car hire for the duration

All the websites I go on either insist I fly to the city I am staying in, divert my flights to Frankfurt or prevent me getting what I want in some other way.

I thought these travel sites were meant to make life cheap and easy but this is just a damn frustrating experience so far.

Book the different parts of the holiday separately?

^this

Book flights with airline.

Use the big websites to find a hotel you like - then look on the hotels own website and book direct.

I will end up going to a travel agent I expect.

I just assumed that given how much these sites spend on advertising and telling us that they can make the process easy, they might actually do that.

I didn't think my criteria were that challenging
