This one isn't like that. I looked it up on otbeach.com and when you select the flight it says its with first choice and I think its direct. This is what it says about the depart. and arrival times: Departs Birmingham (BHX) at 08:00 Arrives Cancun (CUN) at 15:05 For £599 per person.
I've been lookin around some more and I found another alright lookin deal. The one on otbeach.com was a flight + double room for 2 of us for £1206.58. Just looked on theholidayplace.co.uk an it has a flight + a standard room each for £1269. That's only if i understood it right .
hey john sounds about right i booked with the holiday place i think they are decnt in partnership with thomas coook!! i got mine for 2 weeks at the oasis for a couple of pound over £1200 which was the best i could find leaving on the 8th from gatwick :roll: CANT WAIT

Hi, just wonderin how many of you guys are goin? And what type of room did you get at the oasis with theholidayplace? Amount of people per room and stuff? Sorry for the interrogation I haven't booked mine yet gonna do it in about a month. Is this your 1st time to cancun SB?
Yea it does look that way :lol: What do you think I should do? book fight an hotel separate? Whenever I go on the oasis Cancun website it don't let me do anything to find the prices lol.
Book them seperate . I hate giving travel agent's extra cash although using alpharooms then one of those flights comes out about the same ., so personally I'd book the room's now and wait till about a month before your departure dates when the flight prices drop. ( I got them for approx £300 last year :shock: ) A few people on here have used alpharooms before and there ok. Did your quote include transfers though ? Ian :lol:
I haven't used www.alpharoom.com before so I'm just lookin at some quotes now. what do you mean transfers? (sorry if its obvious) Just wonderin whats the average price at that time of the year at the oasis for two people sharing a two bed room? lol Thanks
Transfers = coach from the airport to your hotel then back from the hotel to the airport at the end of your jollies as there is no cab rank to pick you up at Cancun but you can prebook private hire cars to meet you. . Not sure about average price, alot of people fly from different destinations to Cancun and stay in various grades of hotels so it varies Best thing to do is keep searching, try travel republic aswell although alpha rooms are normally cheaper for the same hotel. Ian :lol:
