Though the company is called "Affordable Holidays", it is not as affordable as it seems to be.. shop around and you will find a better deal.. log on to the airline websites and the chances are that you will find a better deal. The company has a strange modus operandi.. can't find a better word... they have a dummy website www.worldwideflights.com & another one www.affordableholidays.co.uk ...i discovered this fact while trying to book online and telephone numbers mentioned on both the websites are identical ([protected])..the website doesn't have a real time booking engine and the fares quoted are grossly under-quoted as they prompt you to call up their reservations team..n this is how they flee unsuspecting customers..over charging is rampant as their sales person blatantly refuse to give the fare published on the website.. I am an avid traveler, covered almost all the continents over the last 50 years and have fare idea about how aviation industry works.. these guys will take you for a ride, hence, be very careful before sharing your credit card details... i would recommend you to shop around and counter their quotations by at least 100 pounds less.. compare the fares on the respective airline websites.. had a couple of very close calls when i was almost fleeced by these guys...fly safe!

exactly! their website is a scam and the customer service is extremely rude. I looked up their website and inserted my destination and date. it was about £700+ on the website, I called and they said no, it is impossible, it has to be more than £1000. And the way they speak to the customer is really really rude. One of the customer service asked '' Ms, it is impossible the fare is 700 pounds, tell me if you are able to pay 1000pound now?! if yes, I will only look for you, if no, ok bye bye!''

My question is, if there's no such fare or it's sold out, why are you still showing on the website?
