thanks for that answer barry, but perhaps i didnt make myself clear - the prices in the brochure are for flights too, its not booking directly with the hotel, but the tour operator. The holiday is for jersey, and the brochure i got from first choiceis for "preston holidays". They have a line you can call them to book the holiday with them. so what is the difference between getting the travel agent to do it, and the tour operator (which is abta/atol bonded?) I dont mind doing it either way, but getting to the travel agents is a bit tricky at the mo. I presume there is no price difference because the prices in the brochure would be what the estate agent charges anyway i guess? I'm just excited because i havent been on holiday since my honeymoon 8 years ago, and dont know if i can wait to go to the agents, but wondered if there was something better about doing it there
