The only thing Thomas Cook have done is reduce plane numbers and flights. This means less supply and therefore higher prices. TC will say they have got it right, and as you hardly ever see a spare seat on a TC flight these days, I suggest they have. The way people talk is like the prices are so high they are flying half empty planes because people can't afford them.

Nothing is further from the truth.

In the scheme of things flights are cheap, I wouldn't want to walk to Calis.

Our transfers were dearer than our flight home last year.

Are you seriously saying that £ 986 is cheap :o

Flight prices are only cheap if you happen to be one of the lucky few who can book outside of school holidays and earlier than most people know their availability.

Flight prices are brilliant for those who live in Scotland but fly from England when the Scottish schools have broken up for summer and the English schools haven't  :)
