    Woohoo! All booked up. £297 for two people. What an amazing bargain!

    For those who can't find the cheap prices, try a search for the 7 days from 30th August till 6th September. They are still £75 per person each way as at 21.53 tonight.


    As for accomodation, I'm keeping my fingers crossed for a bargain on that front. Presently I'd expect to pay at least £100 per night per double room and get no luxury whatsoever for that.

    Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!! :beer:

    It has been a long dream of mine and my partner's to go to NY and you have just made it possible. £297 for our flights and will be using our Tesco clubcard points to hopefully pay for our accommodation via Virgin Holidays! Have about £260 in deals already :T

    Thanks.....roll on 26th October!

    This is interesting..... it exposes what a rip off we suffer in this country.....

    London to Orlando in august for 2 weeks = £2145 for 2 adults and 1 child
    Orlando to London in august for 2 weeks = £1760 for the same 2 adults and 1 child

    The dates were the same but the premium for originating in the UK is £385

    methinks that Martin should expose this rip off and put a stop to companies like BA ripping us off !
  • Many Many thanks... so many that I have been forced to register to express them! I have friends that I haven't seen for over half a decade in Houston Texas, and thanks to you I have a return flight for £200... less than half what I was expecting to pay.

    YOU TOTALLY ROCK!!!
