    Hi Guys,

    A friend of mine and her husband are looking to get away for a few days during Christmas to relax. Long story short, the husband was unwell earlier in the year and just wants to get to the sun for a few days.

    They were thinking about the Canaries but the prices are EXTORTIONATE to say the least! So here is the question, any recommendations on where to go with a bit of sunshine and who to book with?

    Tried Expedia and Lastminute.com but, crazy prices and Ryanair are booked out for Lanzarote.

    Thanks in advance

    Try emailing Philip Nolan, travel correspondent in Irish Mail. He also does a gig on RTE's Drivetime every Monday. Email drivetime@rte.ie.
    I'm sure he can advise.
    Or altervatively, try Eoghan Corry, editor, Travel Extra. He does a gig on the Pat Kenny radio programme, not sure which day. Could be a Friday.
    Email today@PK.ie
    Or read the Irish Times travel supplement every Saturday. It is called 'Go'.
