how often do package holiday co.s do this? 13:36 - Aug 27 with 4415 viewssparks

Flight home changed from 830 pm to 830 am. Same day. So a whole day holiday lost on a 7 day trip.

They have offered to pay for our parking and book seats for us to be together on plane. Supposedly worth 130 quid. A fraction of the cost of 1/7 of the holiday...

Will never use Tui again.

That's rubbish.

BA cancelled my flight back from a holiday I'm currently on (months in advance to be fair) and rebooked it for the morning so we would lose a day as well.

Emailed and said no way, fly us back the next day and to be fair they agreed. I'm assuming TUI don't have chartered flights the next day you could push for?

Incredibly annoying of them and unacceptable, should at least refund the day you're missing, not that it's much conciliation.

Ive done new york with expedia- which was painless.

Not taken the family on a flight / package holiday before. Wanted to do it properly. 4 fecking Ks for a week in October!


If you do cancel check out Ikos.

It's really excellent.

Surprisingly difficult to get accomodation suitable for a family (i.e. not a hotel room which "sleeps 4").

Just a 2 bed apartment etc.... Preferably without the type of people who appear on "Ibiza weekender" downstairs or next door!

They have interconnected rooms which we used previously.

It's owned by Sani, it's honestly worth checking out given the price range you've specified although maybe not the best weather at the end of October.

Myself and a number of friends have been to the ones in Greece. Certainly no undesirables in the ilk you've described there.

It's properly all inclusive as well with a rather good 100+ bottle wine cellar selection including some rather excellent local wines.

Looks a bit more expensive than I have contemplated- but I will look more closely.

We have gone for Oct half term and therefore as far asouth as possible- hence Fuerteventura where it should still be 25+ mostly

I agree it's expensive, certainly over the summer. I've been during Easter half term and my friend is going this October half term when it's more reasonable but if you want guaranteed weather then looking further south like you've done is probably very sensible.

Quite common. They may have merged flights or swapped a slot. Times are tough in the holiday business because of something called Brexit If you voted for Brexit, blame yourself. If you didn't blame rabid Tory extremists. And perhaps be thankful that you still have a holiday to go to.


What a load of cr@p.

Regularly.

Scheduled airlines do it too. Some friends had their BA flights moved by 7 hours.

At the end of the day, if you cancel, they won't really care. Let it settle then do whatever is best for you and the family.


Bit of a heartless comment - using the phrase “at the end of the day”, when Tui are trying to move their flight to the start of the day...

That's a lot of money for a short space of time - now even shorter!

I'd cancel and put it towards another time when you have a chance to look about perhaps more closely?

In fact, sod that for 6 days mate.

They've done you a favour.
