This is stupidly cheap, in a nice quiet resort, but finding flights to compliment it is double hard I can't find any for less than £269, but you may fare (get it?) better. Good luck

I see the Turkey haters are up early this morning...
The resorts in the south west, Marmaris, Kusadasi, Fethiye etc are no more dangerous than lets say London, Brussels, Paris or Orlando even.
And as for "A country full of Muslims is a disaster waiting to happen.", to me that comment is bordering on racist.

I work in the middle east on a regular basis. Pigeon holing a nation because of the religion of fthe majority of its people is unfair.
99% of the Muslims I meet during my travels are the most warm, hospitable people I have come across. You're more likely to get harmed by a white trash bonehead on your own soil than you are by going on holiday.

I don't wish to alarm you in any way at all, but there are only 214 miles seperating "us" from the people who attacked in Paris. Best you stay in your anderson shelter that you still have in the garden, it's not safe out there!

Wow..... a brilliant price for a hotel in a holiday resort, I can't wait to go.
Now, let me think, why is it so cheap....... it's in Turkey you say...... ah no problem, I am well versed in world affairs, and what's more, I am an expert in all matters Turkish, have family and friends living in different parts of the country, so I am totally aware of exactly what is happening on a daily basis, and am willing to take the risk of problems.
Good grief, even those Turkish people living near the resorts don't know when something will happen, and the Turkish military do not get told of an attack until after it happens (and they won't worry about human rights when questioning suspects), so how are us Brits going to be able to feel safe ?
To rather misquote Josey Wales...... ''Dying ain't much of a bargain'' !

I live a few miles from Dewsbury, I didn't know (neither did security services) when a local man decided to blow the tube stations up.
I also didn't know (neither did security services) when a car load of bombers travelled from Birmingham to attack an edl march on a busy afternoon in Dewsbury town centre.

seem to recall lots of cheap holidays to Tunisia a couple of years ago. let's hope the Turkish security forces act a bit quicker than the Tunisian ones should anything happen.

I live in Dewsbury and the security services lets call them police nor I knew that a mother would kidnap her own daughter.......blah blah blah.
What has this got to do with a holiday in Turkey.
Wild horses couldn't drag me to Turkey-The government advises this
There is a high threat from terrorism. Terrorist groups, including Kurdish groups, Daesh (formerly referred to as ISIL) and far left organisations, continue to plan and carry out attacks. Further attacks are likely and could be indiscriminate.
There is a heightened risk of terrorist attack against the aviation industry in Turkey. You should co-operate fully with security officials at airports.
Most terrorist attacks have taken place in the south and east of the country and in Ankara and Istanbul. Attacks are most likely to target the Turkish state, civilians and demonstrations. Nevertheless, it’s likely that some attacks will also target western interests and tourists from western countries, particularly in the major cities.
The Turkish authorities have successfully disrupted attack planning in the recent past and have said that security has been tightened in response to recent attacks. But further attacks are likely and could be indiscriminate.

You are further away from the 10 miles within the Syrian border, as the advice says on the website, than we currently are to Paris. Get a grip!
