See the "exchange" on the "tourist house". I don’t give a link - a competing resource, google it.

Thanks, I'll look.

I have a feeling that "last minute deals" are a myth.... it's just that no one buys tours to bad and cheap hotels, so they are then passed off as last minute ones :)
аватар Lapikova2011
Maybe ... I have already heard that there is nothing good in this .. It is very rare when someone refuses .. Thank you ..

Hot tours occur when seats are not filled on flights. Then they take the most unpopular hotels with nuances in terms of service and food and discount the price first by 10, then by 20 percent, etc. until the flight is full. It happens, but not regularly. Usually it is justified to fly on a burning one when you only need a flight and 4 walls. And the quality of the hotel is not taken into account. Therefore, as a travel agent, I never use last-minute offers, but on the contrary, I book as early as possible.

Thank you all for your participation .. I have one more question: where is it better to buy a ticket in Russia or in Ukraine .. if I plan to fly from Moscow?
аватар Pachok
I came across good "burning" ones several times, but that was quite a long time ago. The Hilton Plaza at $380 per person for two weeks in September, for example. Not bad and not unpopular.
In advance, in general, I buy only on foreign sites and on the sites of hotels and airlines. I never take ready-made tours from our TOs in advance - closer to departure it is almost always cheaper. 2014 was an exception, if we consider payments in hryvnia, because of the exchange rate. But, if we compare prices in USD, then the tour that I needed on certain dates to a certain hotel, a week before departure, began to cost 2300 instead of 3200.
Lapikova2011, of course, in Russia.

Thank you .. It’s just that we have a situation in the Donbass, don’t buy, don’t sell, don’t fly away .. you won’t go to a quiet place once again ..

Hilton Plaza is one of the most economical 5 star hotels in Hurghada. The price for the next dates usually burns for departures:
- before September 1;
- before January 1;
- after 8 March.
And in the best periods for relaxation, the price increases daily until the day of departure.

And the flights are burning right after the May ones)

Thanks...

agent_borabora, when you have this economical five sold in advance for 380, well, okay, even for 500 - write, you will not end up with customers here.

If you want to fly out of Kyiv, you can book on our website, pay to a Privat Bank account and receive documents by email - and print it yourself and go directly to Boryspil Airport to Kyiv. for 1-2 so we book and send tourists, the main thing is that there are seats on the flight. Right now there is a good offer of 5 stars. All inclusive. for 9 nights departure Hurghada from Kyiv. 16.01.-850 USD for 2 persons!!

Pachok, for example, before the New Year there was a price at the Hilton for 200 dollars per person for 5 nights of rest, to whom everyone didn’t say aah, but everyone had plans. None of our customers have ever purchased. So it's not about the price)
аватар Pachok
In advance? Or is it still burning?
I would also not go to Hurghada before the New Year.
аватар agent_borabora
Burning. This is just the period when last-minute tours are justified. Therefore, they burn that no one needs them.
аватар Pachok
What about September? middle. Normal two weeks, not 5 days, Hilton Plaza, not Ali Baba with Aladdin and Jasmine to the heap. Burned.
аватар agent_borabora
In September, it is difficult to get on the burning Hilton. It was rather an exception, like a game of roulette. For example, I do not want to trust my precious long-awaited vacation to roulette. Although there are gamblers who like to tickle their nerves with "burning".
аватар Pachok
No roulette - if nothing decent "burns", just buy a tour at the current cost.
аватар agent_borabora
The fact of the matter is that the current cost may be higher than the budget or there will be no seats on the flight.
аватар Pachok
So, there will be seats on another flight, to another country, on another date :)))
Honestly, I don’t really count on burning ones myself, but they really do happen. I receive an extensive travel newsletter for agencies, I can draw some conclusions. Either Sri Lanka is dumping for the whole season, then blocks have been raked up in the UAE, but there are no sales, you have to discount tours at the cost of tickets, then some hotel enters the market and is sold cheaply by all operators (like the new Arena in the Maldives is now), then something else something.
At the moment, I don’t see anything good, except for a slight decrease in the price of medical tours to Karlovy Vary. Turkey and Egypt have not seen normally burning for a long time. 20 bucks off doesn't count.
аватар agent_borabora
It happens that we have planned a vacation and are waiting for burning ones. A week passes - no burning. The second week - the price rises. In the third week, the price rises even more. There is nowhere to put off, you choose according to the budget from what is left - you don’t have time, the seats on the flight are over. And available places are much more expensive.
What can be an alternative to burning Egypt in the budget of 500-700 dollars / person per week for a 5-star hotel on the first line for all inclusive? Neither the UAE nor Lanka will pass the budget. There is no beautiful underwater world in Turkey. Tunisia is too dirty. Bulgaria - visa. Montenegro is a cold sea. Cyprus is expensive. Greece - visa.
So it turns out that with burning people you can either overpay, or go to an economy hotel, or stay at home.
аватар Pachok
Again, I may not have explained clearly enough. There is a budget, for example, 1000. You can fly to 10 places to choose from. We are waiting for burning places for 500. If not, we fly to one of 10 places for 1000. No one suggests looking for alternatives to the "burning" one - it's pointless :) And, most often, closer to departure, you can go to 5 of these 10 places for 800- 900.
аватар Lapikova2011
Your solution to the issue suits me .. I want to go on vacation from February 16 = 18, but I need a flight from Moscow ...
аватар agent_borabora
Pachok, as far as I understand correctly, it doesn’t matter where to fly, right? In this case, the search for burning ones is justified.
And if only a certain direction is considered, and no other, then you can not wait.
аватар agent_borabora
Lapikova2011, it's not a problem to buy a ticket from any city of departure from Riga to Khabarovsk without leaving your home.
It remains to voice: the approximate budget or the desired duration and star rating of the hotel.
аватар Pachok
Of course you can't wait! Do I urge you to firmly count on those who are burning?
