thanks brackely, but I had to book with the only travel agent who can find seat for all 5 of us for late 27/ there were agencies who could do a day before for real good value, but sadly son is doing he's GCSE until 27.
so I will keep the number for when we sell the house, for our final move hopefully later this year.

well you wont believe it, all these lovely prices are non-existent, once you call them the total they give you, gives you a heart attack, once they include the airport taxes.
so we said ok lets go, and then they tell you there is no seat.
very stressful, I be the size of elephant, stress makes me eat.
so I have found travel agent through teletext, he said no flights at all to Adelaide for 27 of June on ward, fully
booked so we said try Melbourne, he has found 5 seat with one night stop over, advertise on the net for £2781, guess how much we have been quoted for on the phone £3401, what the difference.
So I dont know what to do, cause the say from 1st of July prices would double.
I hope we can find place in Melbourne to stay for a few nights before we go to Adelaide, ok I am trying to be positive.

now we still have to ship things over once we have sold the house, get jobs, wow so much stress still to come our way.
Hello you lot!!
We booked our tickets with Dial a Flight, do a search for them on google, weve been charged £1520.40p for 3 seats to adelaide on Singapore Airways.
Hang on, heres the number: 020 8225 1336, our sales guy is Charlie.

Hope this helps.
When are you going? We fly out on the 26th June.
Regards,
Paul

Thanks Djfbug and Rachel & Paul, we have contacted both operators to see whether they can match our quotation from Trailfinders, (which does look quite good so far) Manchester - Perth with a 2 night stopover at Pan Pacific hotel for 4 people £2427.00 incl everything...see if they can match it
