Just how stupid is this???

I suspect the package options flying from ABZ will be very limited.

[Jacqui Harvey]

Packages with Thomson are arond £1,000 plus. 

[BernieTeyze]

No with them  cheap companies, like icelolly, sunshine,travel republic,on the beach...don't forget you are only using the flight part to dalaman.

There is always the Glasgow - Antalya option 1st to 26th Sept Jet 2 £313.60 for two pax (not including baggage and additional travel costs)

Packages with Thomson are arond £1,000 plus. 

And some packages are cheaper than flights.

[Jacqui Harvey]

Not from where I live.  I have looked at the package option but nothing cheaper than around £1,000.  I have tried a lot of websites too. 
Packages may be cheaper from London but not from Scotland.

Looks like we will both be waiting a few weeks to see if the prices come down

[faymoore]

I have spent the last couple of weeks pondering a winter visit.
We normally visit in May/June but this year coming over late Aug/ Sept/ Oct
(We have never been to Turkey Jan / Feb time)

Flights from London to Antalya (Sue is not keen on flying into Istanbul) and staying at our place in Uzumlu for a month or so.
Shocked at the costs involved, best I can do taking into account transfers etc in excess of GBP800 for the two of us.

Our normal Winter break is Portugal's Algarve:
The same dates self catering accomodation (WI FI included) flights, transfers etc.. about GBP600
Flying from our local airport Southend and only a short transfer from Faro.

Unless we can get a better deal I think we may be off to Portugal again lol

Could you book one way Jacqui?  Then maybe book the return leg when over there

[Jacqui Harvey]

No, they will not book one way, asked that already.   We are going to hang on until later and see if we can get a flight.
