Sunwing Problems?

[writetosfa]

I tried to look up some prices for a resort in Punta Cana with Sunwing this morning, but for some reason I can't select any 2008 departures! Is it just my computer or is something going on?

Sunwing only offers limited departures. So if you cant find a date, that means they dont operate yet. And sometimes they're bound by contracts, which is effective by Jan09, etc.

so if u see a date, u can have a cheap vacation.

Yesterday they had all the 2008 dates available - today not one departure in 2008 for any destination. But, you can look up 2008 departure dates for flights - just not packages. So, they are operating flights during those dates, but not selling packages with hotels? That doesn't seem right.

There was a problem with their booking system yesterday, but today it is OK.

Keep in mind, Sunwing still charges "Fuel surcharge" that is about 100$ per person. So you will see that their taxes are about 100$ more than other companies. Keep that in mind when you comare prices and compare total price with taxes.
