Not sure whether to look into this...
Small print says taxes, etc are not included - is this likely to add much to the cost?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

London to US charges & taxes with BA are about £125 per person
London to New York with BA in November for £114 per person plus charges & taxes
London to Boston with BA in November for £134 per person plus charges & taxes
London to Washington DC in November with BA for £133 per person plus charges and taxes.
So you can save a little, but you'll probably lose flexibility - and theres a chance other airlines will charge even less0 -
It's the cheap period for tickets...so £249 before tax doesn't look that great. If you can get that price at Xmas or Easter it might be worthwhile, but you need to check if they have any blackout dates or restrictions on around that time. Tax depends on which airports and which airline to find the total cost. You can always ring Landround Travel Ltd and find out?
eg...Birmingham to Atlanta on KLM in November is £134 a ticket...but taxes make the total cost £290 on KLM via Amsterdam, not a bad deal but a lot more than the ticket price itself.0 -
Well, I've found tickets for £238.50 from Bristol exactly when I want to go, so don't think this is such a good deal after all...
Guess it's worth paying just slightly more to go from my home town and when I want to!
Thanks for all your help!0
