This must surely be linked to the news today. Do I jump or wait for further reductions?

Still way to high.

We paid £2700 (3a 1c) direct from Manchester flying Saturday 18th July (start of school holidays in England) in January sales with TUI.

the difference pp between hand luggage and checked baggage / seat selection is coming up at about £236 this is for 2 adults and 2 children. So for example if I just checked 2 suitcases between us plus the hand luggage how much would I expect it to be?

thanks

From what I can see it’s $60 per bag per flight so $120 return.
Is that £236pp for bags and seats? That’s an outrageous amount if so!

[jojj]

no thats £236 for 1 checked suitcase and seats for 2 adults and 2 children so prob best to go for that then if its $120 return per suitcase.

thanks

That’s a crazy price for flight only, I’d want the villa and car included and maybe some park tickets!

Direct flights with Virgin are now falling below £600pp from Gatwick in peak school holidays (i.e not September!)

I am monitoring for Manchester but looking at all options... just found LHR direct to MIA and same return...£1,667 for 2a 1c 8th Aug to 29th Aug...best I've seen.

Hope it helps someone!

On the lookout for flights again, as I've had a nightmare of a time trying to deal with the effects of Flybe going under. Word of advice NO ONE book with lastminute.com :/

Just booked with Delta, Dublin to Miami return with one stop €1,104 for the two of us, out late July, back mid August.
Happy with those prices

Booked with Virgin this morning LGW to MCO direct. Out 30th July, return 14th August. 3 adults, 1 young adult. Economy classic so this includes checked bags. Virgin also has free seat booking. Booked on Virgin Atlantic website via TopCashback link. £2366 (and cashback has tracked at £7.57!) Very happy that price direct both ways from my preferred airport. Skyscanner has same route same day economy light (no bags) for around £2000, but bizarrely the economy classic option via that link is around £6000!

Probably not a popular time to book but I’ve payed by credit card, and my travel insurance covers FCO advice not to travel so I’m feeling fairly well protected.
