Remember to double check the prices with both First Choice and Eclipse.
I have just priced a Holiday on FC and then thinking it would be a bit cheaper on Eclipse went to their site and it was more than £200 dearer.
First Choice = £4442
Eclipse = £4657

personally unless you are desperate to book i would wait a while, prices are bound to come down once they have creamed the top off, e.g people who want to pay higher prices.
That is of course unless you know a particular hotel gets busy

also we have secured 2 free child places with interconnecting rooms,which makes our holiday cheaper and easier.i check the prices regularly year round,and ive never found that my chosen accomadation becomes cheaper,always more expensive(2 adults 4kids),but im sure for 1 room it does.
Not booked yet, but I priced it up and it works out the same as this summer's price 
I'll leave it now until we come back from GC in about 10 days, I found the Winter 06/07 prices dropped slightly at the end of November 05, about 3-4 weeks after they went on sale, so maybe the Summer 07 prices will follow the same pattern and I might save a little bit more - doesn't matter if I don't - it's still a good price for August

im sure some of you will know this already,but to those who dont,eclipse direct give a loyalty discount of £50 if you book 2 holidays in the same year with them,i have booked for oct 2007 port aventura in spain with them, and i was looking for a quiet week in july when my eldest finishes gcses(2007).i phoned them last night havig found a good hotel on the internet and asked if they could match the internet price and give low deposits,they could nearly match it except for £40,but when he checked my details i got the £50 off and a futher £15 off because we travelled with the last october so in fact undercut the internet price.i amm very happy ,but my husband is going crackers 
too late ive booked now,now to work out how im going to pay for it all mox

just checked.thomas cook holidays are now available for 2007 summer.
First choice matched an eclipse price for me today and saved me almost £800 pounds on another price i was given today on same holiday.
Thomson's main Summer Sun brochure is now on sale - it went online this morning but the hotel I wanted wasn't there, so I went down to our local Thomson shop to get a price - it was very expensive with room supplements (£3 pp pn) because we wanted 3 single beds instead of 2 double beds, and various other 'add-ons'... I think I'll be booking with Eclipse after all
Airtours/My Travel is also on sale now too

Hi! Same thing happened to us this year. Booked over a year in advance last year, for this July, within a couple of months the price had gone up over £600. Well chuffed 
Hi, do you think it is advisable to book early for 2007 , as in now when holidays first on sale for the best price, ? and does anyone know which companies let you pay a low deposit just now ??? thanks
If you phone your local travel agent, they can advise who is doing what sort of deal at the moment.
Some have 1st child free, some have a % off the brochure price etc etc

If you book with http://www.eclipsedirect.co.uk you can pay a £30 per person deposit but this only applies to telephone bookings, not internet bookings.

Well, that's me done!!! Ibiza here we come! (in 15 months anyway) Booked online with Thomsons in the end, a bit dearer than Eclipse, but the hotel is nearer the beach and the Thomsons superfamily facilities at the hotel completely outshine anything First Choice have to offer in their hotel nextdoor. I was a bit unsure about the extra cost at first, but it'll probably be our last big holiday all together, my son will be nearly 18 when we go away, and will probably want to take any future holidays "wiv der lads"

The only reason i am edging on caution of booking holidays is because of a number of factors;
1 Holidays for this summer were around £500 cheaper in January 2006 rather than April 2005 and still the same choice.
2 Tour operators havent got their full selections available yet.
3 Deals are always better after the summer season, e.g November when bookings are down.

i am glad i booked early all the kids den rooms with frist chioce have gone for the two weeks i wanted. they went after being on sale for just one week.
if you know where you want to go and they have extras that are limited i would book early if not thats a risk you take.

Just been into Lunn Poly (is it still called that?) anyway the one that does Thomson Holidays to pick up a few 2007 brochures.
The sales assistant said that the Brochure prices in their dedicated Turkey 2007 brochure are 15% down on 2006 prices, before any add on travel agents discounts/free insurance deals etc etc. I've no way of verifying this but thought I would pass it on just incase it's of interest to anyone thinking of Turkey for next year.
