budget airlines to alicante

Options
i live in nottingham and would like to go to visit family in alicante in July 06 for a long weekend (thurs to sunday). Have some of the airlines stopped their flights during the summer as i cant find any reasonable prices to fly from nottingham eastmidlands. I could go from Birmingham doncaster, coventry or leeds bradford for about £100 return, but Nott east mids would be easiest.

Plus what is parking situation like at any of these. I save my clubcard vouchers so i could use purple parking.

Any help

Thanks

Louise

    I live near Alicante and it would seem thst the flights for EMA airport and becoming a little more expensive. Ideally for me I would fly into EMA but this isnt always a cost effective trip! The airlines I have used are;

    easyjet.co.uk
    bmibaby.co.uk
    flymonarch.co.uk
    flythomson.co.uk
    ryanair.co.uk
    jet2.co.uk
    ryaniar.co.uk

    Theres also My Travel Lite .... hope this is of some use.

    https://www.skyscanner.net shows your preferred route (EMA/ALC) is served by: flythomascook.com, bmibaby, easyJet, First Choice, Britannia, Excel Airways.

    The website is only listing flights up until March at the moment, so probably best to contact these carriers directly (use https://www.google.co.uk to find their websites).

    I think you might be limited with your choice because you only want to go for four days. This rules out using flight-only charter-airlines such as Thomas Cook or First Choice. This is because they usually only fly once or twice a week to a particular destination.

  • Ryanairs summer timetable is due out within the next 14 days. You should be able to fly from East Midlands to Murcia for about £50 return a head including all taxes if you book straight away. It is an easy drive up from Murcia to Alicante
  • We stay between Murcia and Alicante when we visit Spain and fly to either airport from Leeds Bradford on Jet2 - for July 2006 it is just over £250 return for 4 adults to Alicante. It's only an hour or so up the M1 from Notts and worth it if you are making the savings.
