cass, the charge for security is very minimal and that I understand goes mostly to our 'effective' Government

I agree, I have no problem with the value for money of bulgariian resorts but this money is going striaght into the coffers of the big tour companies, and i bet they wont pass it on to the local people.re: Price of Holidays

Cass I have booked with Balkan Holidays - not one of the big four. At the end of the day companies operate to make profit so it is justifiable that profit will be madeYT
re: Price of Holidays
Hi Cass,I've just booked for next year with Inghams (early- Bird Brou) and saved £50 per person, and only £45 deposit required until they release their new brou.

Balken holidays have changed their flight times this season which means you don't arrive into Sofia until 00.50!!!!! They didn't give us much warning either and then it was too later to change tour operators they were all full!!!!Lets hope there are some boots left when we finally get up on Sunday!!!!
