    There's a group of us going on holidays to Bulgaria in August. I booked some flights and accommodation separately and it worked out at around €450 when everything was included (checked bags etc).

    One of the group is after finding a cheaper deal €395 on budget travel. If we went wit this deal, would that be the final price or we we end up charging more due to taxes/charges/adding bags/budget travel's fee for finding the holiday? Flights are at exact same time and accommodation is same type and in relatively the same area.

    I've never used package deals before so I'm unsure if my definite €450 is a good or bad deal compared to (possibly not definite) €395.

    Maybe the more expensive option has air conditioning in the apartment. A necessity over there in August.

    The checked in bag will be circa €50/60 extra during summer months. Normally they would have free resort transfers by coach so depending on airport that might make a difference.

    It would seem that Falcon include for a checked bag in the price :)
