I called into Coop travel yesterday and there was a holiday to Dalyan for today with Thomas Cook for 1 week.It was to the hotel Keskin which had great reviews and all for £152.It was also available for 6 nights on Saturday for the same price.
When I told my husband he asked what the temperature was there at the moment,I looked on wunderweather and its 91f.
I could believe it he wouldnt go as he said it was too HOT!

He will regret it as I am now thinking of booking a holiday to the Austian alps in a couple of weeks.

Re: I found a great deal to Turkey for tonight!

Hi Lyn,I have just encountered another hurdle regarding an Austrian holiday.I have just read they have not yet stopped smoking indoors and very few hotels state they have a non smoking dining room!.
I dont mind in any other area in the hotel but I cant bear it when I am eating.
I will ask the travel agent to try and find out which ones are non smoking.Jay

Re: I found a great deal to Turkey for tonight!

I am off tomorrow to see if I can book a holiday to Austria!I fancy either Zell am see,St Wolfgang or St Johann.
We have just come back from the caravan where it was gale force winds,heavy rain and it was 9c! :yikes

He didnt dare moan and had the nerve to point out a deal on Teletext to Turkey!
It was obviously a Goldtrail Holiday as it was AI and cheap.
When he sees the knapsack and hiking boots tomorrow he will realise hes not going to Turkey :rofl

Re: I found a great deal to Turkey for tonight!

an easy way is double it and add 28 ie 50 degrees is 50 plus 50 plus 28

Re: I found a great deal to Turkey for tonight!

Kitzbuhel is nice, its a bit too big, get the train into st johnann, they have a =n all year round toboggan there, its only one stop along, it runs down the mountain behind st johann cant remeber what its called, we used to get the train out to somewher then hire mountain bikes to get back, you can get them at the station, dont forget stroh brandy 80percent proof
