no way am i booking flights through contiki… too expensive! my travel agent has given me a price for return syd – heathrow.. depart mon sept 3 and return thu oct 11 for $1989.. im gona check out the travel show this weekend for a deal though. i’m tossing up between booking now, as it is europe early bird sales.. or waiting closer for a last minute deal. just worried if i did that i wouldn’t get a flight!

did you get your flight prices off the website (by doing online booking) or did you have to contact a contiki representative?

i’ve just sent off an email to my contiki rep so we’ll see what price i can get. we should definatley meet up beforehand. we plan to use our day before to rest before leaving on contiki. we will also have our pre-contiki meeting the night before we leave so we’ll get to meet all the other people on our tour
