Penelope went the extra mile to make our booking, after Jet2 tried to increase our holiday cost by 20% due to active pricing.
It still cost more than anticipated but much less than initial costing.

Thank you for leaving Richard a 5* review!
Visit to Rhodes
We were welcomed into the store by Richard. We told him what type of holiday we would like. He had been to the island himself so used his knowledge to explore resorts and hotels which he thought would suit. He was not pushy at all and let my husband and I make the final choice. He was very helpful.

Caitlin at Hays Travel Metrocentre Green
Caitlin at the Metrocentre Green branch was great.
She delivered what she promised - contacting the cruise company when she started her shift. Booked and all confirmed within an hour of Caitlin contacting us back.
Excellent customer service!
