I've bitten. Had it on £1 holding booking.

Jersey to Gatwick 10th August - Heathrow To Miami 11th . Back on 1st Sept Plus large family car Hire for 3 weeks £2250 for 5 adults with £300 deposit and balance in June 2016. Very Happy. Just gotta book the Gatwick to Jersey.

I'll have 2 13 year olds when flying, what happens with the Air Passenger Duty?

[Guest]

The Airport Passenger Duty is refunded automatically up to four weeks after your return, we spoke to BA today regarding this. You also get it back if you book your short haul flight to Jersey, this is £13(every bit helps!).

which airport are the flights departing from? I cannot find anything for Manchester or Dublin, so I take it, it's down south again.

I was looking for mid August to early Sept.

Westjet do fly from Dublin, but they have recently added London Gatwick departures. Have a look at sky scanner or the westjet website. I booked yesterday for 18/07 to 08/08 via toronto for £470 pp from Gatwick including prebooking seats. Booked direct with Westjet - gave them a call, can't rate the lady on the phone more highly.

WestJet only have flights released till 21st Aug at the moment so if flying back late August / early September you will need to wait a week or so

looking at these amazing jersey-Miami prices but our first @real@ destination is new York, so I've found this itinery:

jersey-Gatwick-heathrow-charlotte-Miami
then
Miami-heathrow...etc same as everyone else.

my question is if we drop the charlotte-Miami leg and book a domestic flight to nyc from charlotte, will they cancel our full return journey?

advice please
