What I Booked Was Not Such a Good Deal After All
When I chose a holiday that looked to be a good price, I proceeded with my booking. When I pressed the "Continue" button the price shot up not by a little but by at least £20 per person. Then I had to download the Ryanair app to complete my booking. Personally, I didn't want another app on my phone doing what apps do best (generally, in my opinion, invading my privacy). Be aware, Ryanair's baggage charges are higher than TUI's. So what looked like a real bargain, turned out not to be such a good deal after all.

Thank you for your review. We're sorry the price increased during booking and you needed to download the Ryanair app. Where bookings involve partner airlines, certain services such as check-in and baggage are managed directly by the airline, which is why their app is required. Prices and baggage costs can also vary between airlines, which may affect the overall total compared to the initial price shown. That said, we are sorry that this wasn’t as clear as it could have been at the time of booking and that it led to a disappointing experience. Your feedback is really valuable.
Rip Off seat charges
Booking reference 25165348
We paid an additional £840 to book and choose our 6 extra space seats for both outbound and inbound flights however, when we got to the airport all of our chosen seats had been changed for the outbound flights and the seats for our return flights had been removed altogether!
We called first choice via the airport staff and were told there had been an aircraft change and as the plane would be slightly smaller they didn’t have 6 seats together they had 3 extra space seats next to a row of 3 standard sized seats which we had to accept, we needed at least one set of extra space seats as one passenger is 6’7 and would really struggle in standard seats. We were told we would be refunded the £210 paid for the seats which we would no longer have on the return flight however we were only refunded £150 and on the return flight we didn’t get any extra space seats just 3 extra legroom and 3 standard!
So, we paid for 6 extra space seats each way and we got 3 in total, 6 extra legroom and 3 standard!
We would not choose or recommend first choice following this experience.

Once again, I am truly sorry for the disappointment caused. I do hope that, despite these issues, you were still able to enjoy your holiday once you arrived.
Cancelled flight
We booked our holiday 18 months ago and have had several changes to our booking. Today we received an email saying that our flight had been cancelled and moved to the next day on a much later arrival time. I have booked via First choice and Tui every year for over a decade. Never again.

We appreciate you taking the time to share your experience. I’m really sorry for the inconvenience this has caused, especially after being with us for so many years.
As First Choice plan holidays so far in advance, on occasions they do have to change or cancel flights due to operational changes. We do try and keep these disruptions to a minimum, however this isn’t always possible and as per our terms and conditions, all flights are subject to change.
I understand this is disappointing news, particularly after the other changes you’ve already had to deal with and I apologise for the inconvenience.

We had a really disappointing…
We had a really disappointing experience. Our flights were changed to 2 days earlier, which completely disrupted our plans.
On top of that, we were then informed there would be building works at our hotel. We were told we could change the hotel, but at no point were we given a clear deadline to make that decision.
I later found out that the building works are quite disruptive, so I asked to change hotels — only to be told I had “left it too late” due to a 10-day deadline. This was never clearly communicated and only ever mentioned in relation to the flight change, not the hotel.
I made it clear during calls that I was focusing on sorting the flights first and would decide on the hotel after, and nobody advised me that I needed to decide immediately or risk losing the option.
Very frustrating experience and poor communication throughout. I would like this resolved.

Hi Hayley
I'm really sorry to hear about the frustration you've experienced with your flight changes being moved forward by 2 days and the confusion around the hotel building works. I can completely understand how disruptive this has been for your plans, especially when the communication around deadlines wasn't as clear as it should have been.
I can see you've already been in contact with our complaints team via email, and they'll be responding to you directly to look into everything you've raised.

Can’t even give a five day grace period past the deadline for payment in a £2500 holiday, didn’t even ask why … stick with TUI they have always been supportive If I ever needed an extension , five days extra wouldn’t hurt surely

Thank you so much for taking the time to provide your details. We genuinely appreciate all feedback, and we’re truly sorry that we weren’t able to honour your request on this occasion.
I’ve looked into this carefully, and I can see that our agents tried their very best to assist you. Unfortunately, as the balance due date is already the latest we’re able to offer, we aren’t able to extend this any further. This means the balance will need to be paid by the date originally agreed to when your holiday was confirmed.
We’re sincerely sorry for any disappointment this may cause. We never want to let our customers down, and we understand how frustrating this must be. Despite this, we really hope you’re still able to enjoy a wonderful holiday.

Scan Alert
We wanted to change our holiday, and there some fees of about £450 to change the destination. I found a price online and I could choose the exact same holiday, and get to the payment and the price difference of what I paid and the changing fees was still £400. The person making booking change couldn't explain the difference. So this is a scam and I warn people to find another way of booking. So £450 for change fee, plus £400 mystery fees, £950 to make a booking change.
