  • Petchy-Pee-Jays price seems good-especially bearing in mind it's a scheduled flight!

    I take it you've looked at the easyjets, etc..... for low-cost flights? One of the best sites in my opinion for accom is https://www.apartmentsabroad.com who do have offers (or have in the past!) for Spain.

    Just had a 5 minute play with https://www.expedia.co.uk and found loads of deals for £200-250 for Sun-Thurs.

    If you don't mind an early morning start (6am flight), and a connection in Amsterdam, there are loads of 4 star hotel packages available with KLM scheduled flights.

    The link below should take you to a pricing summary for the Hotel Gran Versalles at £204.33 per person.

    There are many direct flights available but the prices are a little higher.

    How about trying https://www.alpharooms.com or https://www.hotels.com

    I stumbled across a site called https://www.superbreak.co.uk the other night and they had some good prices for city breaks. I think they're part of the co-op?

    None of the budget airlines fly there. Your cheapest option and it wont be cheap is with Alitalia via Rome. In the region of £180

    Ryanair fly from Stansted to Bari and Brindisi
    This is the closest you will get with budget airlines
    1st Aug to 15th BARI £91 and BRINDISI £72 inc tax RTN

    For 8 of you the MINIMUM saving is close on £720 of Peejay67 's price If you were going to hire a car your only extra cost is fuel

    As in most cases , Tues and Wed are the cheapest days to fly ,therefore wed 3 Aug - 17 only

    £54RTN to Brindisi
    £76 RTN to BARI

    Do the maths,make the savings
  • Budget flyer is THE man for flights & his advice will be the best one for you-packages/short haul is my game-there are posters on here who have real specialised knowledge on flights-I must ask BUDGETFLYER to work/with me (!)

    pee-jay obviously has access to the full scheduled flight checking system (forget what it's called-amadeus/gds....???!) & has checked the scheduled option for you as posted above.

    Kind regards,

    Chris
  • thank you peejay97 for your speed. can you say from which airport we would fly? the price certainly sounds good. Donimmold
  • BUDGETFLYER since we would have a 5 1/2 hour car trip if we hired 2 cars, we have 4 children!!! . The fares to Brindisi and Bari are fantastic . But in view of the distance, can I ask you if there is a chance you can find flights, (from uk), to Lamezia Terme airport , and include TWO cars for a week, which is only 59 miles from our destination whereas the Brindisi/Bari are 265 miles. Any chance? 5th to 12th August
