Has Thomsons dropped Tsaros Apartments ?

Hi Sunshinegirl. I was not referring to you in my comment, and certainly meant no offence. As far as I am concerned, Thomson have always provided me with good service, otherwise I would not use them. I personally have had several excellent holidays at Voulas appartments, but this is no longer available via Thomson. There are always reasons for these changes, and Thomson will always try and reduce costs. So do our supermarkets, but this does not seem to attract the same adverse comment!

You mean reduce their own costs ie increase their profit? Because they certainly are not trying to reduce costs for us, their customers. The scare tactics that thomsons use with the "hurry only 1 room remaining" is borderline bribery to their loyal customers who return to the same accommodation year on year.

Georgie2002:
The "hurry only 1 room remaining" thing is (as far as I know) actually true rather than a scare tactic - I've watched the room disappear as I've booked over the phone and also seen it go down to 1 from 2 rooms when booking before.  This year I booked when it said hurry only 1 room left and I got the last 2 person studio, once I had booked the price went up a lot higher as there were only 3 person studios left.

But as I said, that's only as far as I know, I could be totally wrong or completely naive and mislead for all I know!!  :)

We managed to book 4 (yes four!) apartments at the Tsaros last year when the website was showing only 1  apartment remaining.  :o Also had a similar thing happen when booking the Romanza for others this year.

Georgie2002:
I'm sure Thomson have lots of little loop holes to get round putting 1 room left when there's more than 1 that would be suitable for the people booking!  Sneaky and clever no doubt!  But hey I'm not complaining, I got a great 2 week deal that I can't wait to enjoy in August!
