    wouldn't bank on it i saw a holiday on falcon for 2 adults and 3 children on monday night to cyprus a 4* gaff on the 17 may for €1232 woke the wife up to see would we book it but she suggested that we think about it so i left it. the next day we decieded that we would go so igot on the falcon website it had gone up to €1572 in less than 24hrs the wife was going mad over it.

    moral of the story
    if its a bargain don't give to long thinking about it

    Generally they do go a bit cheaper. I booked my next holiday for May 30th in the January sales for about 540. It had gone up to 750 but it's now down to 560 again. Me mates are looking to book in and they know someone in Budget and they said if they leave it for 2 weeks they could get it for about 350.
    However I would be careful. I was going to Lanzorate in March and we were waiting for a last minute deal. We asked the girl in Budget when was the best time to book and she said the Monday or Tuesday before (the saturday) but I checked the wednesday before the monday we were going to book (so a week and a half) and everything was gone. We had to fly the Sunday instead and didn't get great accom
