September 2018... diy or travel agent?

[Jen3675]

Just decided today we are going to book an onsite stay for 2 weeks this September. What is going to be the most economical way of doing it? We normally book 18 months in advance!

if you are doing a standard two week stay then I would have a look at an agent as sometimes they can do a package at pretty good rates, esp in September but also look at diy. see what the £ notes tell you

For a standard, on site, 2 week stay, then in probability, a travel agent. I would price it as a diy and then compare with any and every agent.

Imho, diy works best for multi centre/ multi airport/ multi accommodation type vacations.

Great thanks, I will start pricing. Any suggestions on travel agents?

Irrespective of when you are going, you can only be certain of having the best deal if you shop around - price up all the DIY options/routes, price up all the tour operators. Look at as many as you can.

I'd price up both ioptions, diy gives you so much more choice

I am tempted to book the flights through Disney... deposit of only £25pp. Has anyone done this?

I’ve just been trying to figure out flights for next year and am sorely tempted to book for this year . Direct flights from Glasgow with Thomas Cook for less than £500 each . Must give myself a good talking to

We usually go in September and have always done it is a package as we got good deals. However, for this years trip it has worked out a lot cheaper to book it diy.
