    Its a popular time and close to half term, perhaps do a comparison at https://www.thomsonflights.com to see if doing a combination of one way flights is cheaper.

    Try Airflights.co.uk. Have you registered with Travelsupermarket for their 'fare alert' e-mails. Found flights from London-Las Palmas for 89 quid each for a week in March from them last week.
