Sky Travel Shop (The First Resort/TUI)
Sep 27^th, 2005 at 8:34pm

Can anyone help with the geographical telephone numbers for the sky travel shop. It is an online site and so does not have an address or postcode - at least not one that I can see. Their web site is here
http://www.skytravel.co.uk/html.asp?filename=general.contactus&ito=1551

Two numbers needed
0870 050 0120 - Reservations and enquiries
0870 0500 130 - Customer Services

I have carried out a search on this site and Googled the numbers but to no avail. If someone finds the numbers by doing this can they let me know in case I am just being stupid and need to do this again.

Thanks for your help - it is appreciated.

See the About page on the website. It says:
Quote:

Sky Travel holidays provided by The First Resort, The First Resort is a trading name of TUI UK Ltd. Registered office: Elsinore House, 77 Fulham Palace Road, London, W6 8JA

TUI UK Ltd is better known as Thomson Holidays.

The contact page on The First Resort website gives the address as:
The First Resort
First Floor
Churchgate House
56 Oxford Street
Manchester
M1 6EU

A check of 192.com reveals only 0870 numbers, so no clues there.

0161 236 3072 is a FR recruitment number.

More proof here that it goes to The First Resort in Manchester. Another direct dial phone number is shown: 0161 236 7765

Hi Dave

You seem to be on the right track. Maybe someone else out there will be able to provide some FR numbers - although FR also has NGNs that provide similar services but are not SKY Travel.
I am sure a lot of people would find having the FR and the SKY Travel ones useful - booking a holiday can be a time consuming activity and when you think that you are paying thousands for a family holiday charging high prices for the call does seem a bit mean.

Sorry Dave for the duplicate thread Huh

I did do a search but obviously did not go far enough back!! I have reluctantly just phoned the dreaded 0870 number, Sun evening, 6.30pm and it took 7 minutes of holding before I was even spoken to. Wanted a price for something advertised on TV today and total length of call....... 28 minutes Angry

Hope that doesn't amount to £2.80 for that one call!!

If 0870 calls are unavoidable, and provided it is possible, it is worth scheduling them for weekends

I knew that information was incorrect and pointed that out, and was told its local rate!!

It has a menu which appears to cover new bookings as well as amendments to existing ones. Some feedback would be appreciated on whether it works or not.
