Q I have a booking with Virgin Holidays to Dubai in March. Since I made my booking they’re offering lots of extras for free. Can I ask them to add the extras to my booking?

A March is an off-peak time for UK-UAE travel, as there are no school holidays until the very end of the month. I imagine you booked the trip some time ago and therefore did not benefit from any special deals.
