Going crazy over April 2019 flights!

[Jonesy_aj]

What has everyone paid for flights in April 2019?

The best direct flight price I can get for 2 adults and 2 children is �2700 with Norwegian (Flex+).

I'm really tempted to just book so I can stop checking the internet on a daily basis (4/5 times a day!) and start booking ADRs etc...

What are your thoughts on the above price?

It�s more than I would want to pay to be honest. I don�t go at Easter so can�t really compare but we go in the summer holiday for just over �500 each, Aer Lingus via Dublin

if that's direct & includes luggage etc then, depending on your dates, I think that's good. We paid �2450 for an indirect BA fly drive next april(2a/2c coming back from tampa)) after daily searching from april til September! ... I never found anything less than about �850/900 for direct for my dates (5-22 april) from London/the southwest or the midlands although some people with different "easter "dates flying from the north/scotland did appear to do better deals-wise this year... but crucially its all dependant on what u call "easter" & whether direct is necessary for you. I think theres a point at which the time spent searching outways the cost!

You�ve not said your dates so I�m not sure if we can say if that�s good or not but we fly 4-21 and have paid 1700 ish for indirect man-Miami so if your dates are around then, they sound about right to me.

We are flying out on Easter Sunday and that was the cheapest time we could find. But I guess if you're stuck with school hols that might be why they are so dear.

We paid �2550 NCL LHR MIA incl car (2 ad 2 ch) for our exact easter holidays 6th to 21st. I could have got it significantly cheaper travelling a few days earlier but didn't want to pull the kids out of school.
Skyscanner recently emailed me with �350 pp prices for my dates and I couldn't resist checking but the flight times were awful / very long so I don't actually think there has been anything better since we started looking at release day.

We booked with Virgin out of Manchester (we live near heathrow so have booked hotel for the night before for �80 and premium parking was �50). 2 Adults, 1 eleven year old and a baby (no seat for baby). Economy Delight so we get extra legroom, extra miles and priority boarding, came to �2058. We leave Sunday 7 April (which is lucky as that was the last day for free dining!) and come back Tuesday 23 April - we have an inset day on Tuesday after Easter so our daughter is only missing 1 day of school.

We also didn't get this in a sale - I guess we got lucky? It is definitely less than we had budgeted and we hadn't budgeted for extra legroom seats either.

Hope you're able to find a good deal - Christmas Day and January sales may be good times to book, good luck!

We paid �1710 2adults 2 children (age 13 and 3). 26 March- 10 April 2019 Manchester to Orlando including check luggage with Virgin Atlantic

Edited to say - this is with our DS missing 3 days of school just before they break for Easter.

Do the airlines take part in the Black Friday deals? Is that event coming up very soon?

Virgin Atlantic had a flight sale a few weeks ago over a weekend and i picked up flights for �299 p.p. including luggage flying direct from Manchester. I go April 28th to 17th May but they had flights for March,April and May including the Easter holidays. If you can wait it's Black Friday on 23rd Nov there might be some deals to be had then. Otherwise the boxing day sales. Good luck and let us know how you get on.
