Help with Holiday

[jordancameron2012]

Hello All,

I booked a holiday for me and my partner for the 24th August until the 5th september. in total the cost was roughly £730 bed and breakfast at the carmina hotel.

Sadly we have just split up and i dont have a clue what to do with the holiday, i dont want to go on this as it will not be the same and wont enjoy the experience.

I booked everything individually too save money (hindsight shows that this was silly). i booked the flights with jet 2 so i wont get the money back.

I just came on here to see if anybody has been in the same boat? or if anyboy has any ideas on what i could do.

Thanks so much for any information giving.

Take a girlfriend and go and have a fab time!  I had split up with my ex after I had booked my holiday, took a girly friend and met a wonderful Turk and 7 years later, one marriage and 2 kids here i am!!!!! :

If only life was that easy. I think ive came to the conclusion that i am definetly not going so i have been thinking of what to do.

I have been thinking about trying to sell it on to anybody else interested so that i could get some money back and is not completly wasted. To change the names i think it will be about £80pp.

The flight is from glasgow and if anybody would be interested with more details just ask.

Thanks very much.

If they don't sell then I think you can cancel them and request your taxes back. You have to request this though and I think they still charge a admin fee for the service (they would wouldn't they?).

Did you book directly with he hotel or through someone like Booking.com?

[jordancameron2012]

Booked the hotel through Hotels
i'm not too sure it just says that it is un-refundable if you do not go.

I would rather somebody use it instead of it going to waste so i'm not sure on what is going to happen with it.

Sorry i meant to write I booked with Hotels4u.

Shame - that's why I always try to use booking.com - you can cancel with many of their hotels right up to the day before travel.

Good luck selling them. I hope it works out for you

Yes, i have definetly learned a lesson from doing it they way i did. But i guess we all make mistakes at some point.

Thanks for your help.
