A bit of help required please, booking a holiday from Sweden

[Stevanos]

Hi Guys,

If anyone here either has too much time on their hands or know a few tricks I would be very grateful for some help here.

• My travel dates are 18th or 19th of August, we do not want to travel for more than about 6 hrs, if on the 18th we would prefer an later start as we have a wedding the night before!! we are looking for 10 days away somewhere nice.

Our budget is about £1200

Ideally Greece or Spain, we are looking for some quiet and comfortable accommodation, close to a beach and a town with decent eating options. We are mainly looking for relaxation but would like to go out for drinks, dinner and possibly a little dancing.

Our departure airport is Gothenburg Landvetter, so far I have only really found flights to Barcelona which is my back-up plan.

We would be happy in a hotel or apartment self-catering.

If anyone has any bright ideas I would be grateful as I am struggling to find any real options searching from here in Blighty.

Thanks in advance.

Try Skyscanner. Type in Gothenburg as your departure airport and then click map, the airports in green are where you can get a direct flight to.

Thanks for your help, we have managed to get flights to Split in Croatia for 10 days, so now just looking for a suitable resort and hotel.

I'm in Norway, I always use Restplass.no as it's more orientated to us going south.

Might be worth a bookmark, otherwise just see where Norwegian are flying to and work around that.

Emirates are starting from ARN soonish, so expect a battle with them and Qatar, they'll have a blowout sale when they start.
