Dad's fury over extra £511-a-night hotel stay after return flight is rescheduled

A father who is taking his family on a once-in-a-lifetime holiday to Florida has spoken out after being let down by his package holiday provider. Les Corrigan, 51, claims loveholidays tried to charge him £511 extra to stay in a hotel after a flight had to be rescheduled.

The 15-night trip, which cost about £1,700 for flights and accommodation, was booked in September with the package holiday provider. However, Les and his family were told in May that his return connecting flight from Atlanta to Manchester had been cancelled.

Les, who spent more than £3,000 on attraction tickets and excursions for his family, admitted it has been a "nightmare" trying to speak to representatives at loveholidays, which is owned by private equity firm Livingbridge, to change their flights or to get accommodation for the layover.
