Who does the hols there now
« on: September 03, 2008, 03:53:46 PM »
Well its the longest we've spent away from P - haven't  been there for a year now. So I did the usual browse for flights / hols for mid Sept but seems like there are no packages advertised (except at the Kalypso).
Now we rarely take holiday packages - just get the flight and arrange rooms when we get there but at odd times we've seen (and taken) packages that are comparable in price to flight only.
So have all the package companies pulled out now - is everyone going DIY.
We're based in London.

Hello,

The only "mainstream" tour operator from the UK featuring Plakias is Olympic. Kosmar pulled out last year and First Choice in 2004. There are a couple of small specialist companies featuring it but if you are looking for something cheap they won't interest you. September is reputedly the busiest time of year in Plakias but I'm guessing that you are more likely to find a room independently than an Olympic package. Best of luck though.    

Our EU colleagues on this forum get a better choice I think.
