How much did you pay on your Delta 'glitch'?
I know the jury is out on whether it was a true glitch or not but how much have you paid for your flights and how much do you thiNk you saved?
We are going August 2013 and planning on flying indirect to save a few £££ - would like to get an idea on what to expect when September comes! Thanks

At the time we booked direct flights from LHR to Miami. To add to my suspicion of the "glitch" they then went on to cancel the direct routes in April leaving me with indirect flights. However this did work in some ways to my advantage as we now fly into Miami to spend 3 days there but get to fly out of MCO.
We paid £495 per adult and £470 per child.

I didn't get involved in the Delta glitch at the time but in April this year I managed to book flights with United Airlines for £420 each. We fly out Aug 16th 2012 and back on Aug 30th flying LHR to MCO via Washington. These prices were on the United website and also the Expedia website. Just keep looking.
I was actually looking for holidays to Tenerife but could not resist at that price

We too booked the direct flights to Miami, costing us £520 (think ours cost slightly more due to flying at a weekend.) However, when the flight was cancelled, we changed to LHR to MCO via JFK. If we'd booked that initially, we perhaps could have got it slightly cheaper than we paid. Not enough to be upset about though - at least we're going!

We didn't use the Delta glitch but grabbed a bargain when the cheap United Airline fares became available at the end of October last year. We paid £335 each and are flying out on 26th July from Heathrow to Orlando via Newark.
Wasn't planning on returning so soon but it was rude not to Tracey
