Yes, I've booked with them a few times no problems at all.....

You often find that the voucher you receive is actually from Med Hotels (another well established web agent)- but FMA are cheaper than their prices !

They used to be one of the cheapest ....but just lately I have been finding better prices with Travel Republic using their discount code CARDSTUDENT (sorry can't remember if you need the gap between the two words or not). FMA will often price beat if this is the case (but normally only by £5 !)

One handy thing with FMA.... is that you don't pay the full balance until 40 days before travel - this helps with the budgeting if you are booking flights separately, as these often require their balance 8 weeks before travel.

I have used Travelrepublic with no problem and i know they use medhotels,the problem is sometimes other accomodation providers use lowcostbeds.co and I have read alot of storries about them changing bookings at last minute.I suppose you would have to ring and check who suppliers are before you book with any of them.

Hi Mary,

I've never had that kind of a problem with FMA and I have used them 5 times in the last 3 years.

I've used Travel Republic a few times, also Lowcostbeds and Med Hotels and never had any problems, but I usually e-mail the hotel a few days before arrival to check they have the booking.

Incidentally Travel Republic doesn't need a gap between cardstudent and upper or lower case works equally well.
