It usually costs about 150USD for a "cheap" flight between those two cities, so that is a good deal. I like BA because they are soooooo polite. And the hats the attendents wear are frumpily campy. wink

In early June I flew EasyJet London (Luton) to Madrid for 75 GBP. So 60 CBP is good! :p

According to British Airways, the sale is £69 return including taxes from London Heathrow or Gatwick to a number of destinations in Europe. And the best thing of all is that children.... go for free!!!. Are you reading this Jo-Anne? wink

I know, I know, I know! I've been looking into it, but they only fly from London and the additional expense of us driving/parking, bussing or going by rail there, offsets the financial advantage.

Don't worry, I will be sitting infront of my computer for the very minute the easyJet (from Liverpool) seats go on sale (some time in December), to try to repeat last years success (£70 return in mid August).


Keep those tips coming everyone, but don't let too many people in on the secret!

WOW! Good on ya!!

By the way, through the BA promotion, you can save £5 if you receive an e-ticket (thus my £60 fare). It's almost too bad I don't have a kid, if they get to go free! (no God, I did not say that - please, no kids just yet wink )

In London, I find flying the cheapie airlines too frustrating as Luton and Stansted are soooooo far away for me. The perils of living in a big city, I suppose.

However, in a few weeks I will have bigger perils - I return to Canada and Europe will be so far away! frown But then again, I will be home again! laugh

Thanks,
