We can go late August into Sep and have paid a ridiculous price (based on previous years) for London Heathrow to Miami - we have 2 autistic children and they much prefer travel to Heathrow (which is expensive but in budget) than a change of flight in the US.

Fly drive from Virgin wasn’t as bad as we feared and they know the itinerary well in advance with a night at Heathrow before the main flight and immigration built into the holiday.

If you can, consider other airports - it is so frustrating given we are very close to the airport too, but flight prices from Manchester are through the roof and just not an option for us anymore given we need 5 adult return flights every trip.
