Booking your own family sun holiday without a travel agent offers more flexibility, choice and can be more affordable. It doesn’t always suit to holiday for one week or two, departing at a weekend at pre-destined times. Plus with the sudden closures of several travel companies with no warning in recent times, booking independently can be a safer option.

Have you gone back to the travel agent to advise them that you have got a good price, sometimes they can go back to the tour operator to see if they can get a better price. When booking with a travel agent, then your holiday is protected (assuming you are in the UK)

It is better you check with the Malaysian Tourism department. They can help you find a good holiday matching your budget.

Just a quick tip… Once you’ve got prices of all your flights & accomodation for everything, pop it all in an email and send it to flight centre, and ask them if they can do a better deal for you, than the prices you already have.

They normally take a day or two to get back to you, but they usually will find much better prices for you..

Good luck!

Next, book your desired resorts in Langkawi. Just do some research, read reviews from others then make your choice.
