Frequently asked questions

 

As a policy we do not give discount on the prices displayed on our website as they already represent the best deals we can afford to give. This is also the case with returning customers as they comprise the largest part of our business anyway. However, as a rule the sooner you book, the better the deal you will get. For example the current prices are excellent value and will most certainly go up closer to the time, rather like the way the flight companies work.
