£330 new york flight next june . good price ?

johnwey

Hello
what do you reckon of £330 return flight from heathrow to new york for june next year

booking via ebookers with american airlines and operated by british airways

is £330 a good price or would you wait until xmas to see if it drops

all other airlines are charging between £70-£100 more for the same dates

The price is unlikely to drop below £300 but could go a lot higher, so I would book it.

someone said that the increase in tax has pushed a flight up £30 extra for a return to new york than this time last year.......... so can anyone remember booking a flight last christmas in the sale to new york , flying in the spring /summer or autumn for under £300 , direct flight

thanks

Double check the prices on AA and BA websites to make sure. BTW ebookers may have their own terms and conditions in addition to the airlines so consider that it is exactly what you want because changes may be expensive.

just looking now

by the way with expedia the price is £320 !!

only difference is with ebookers £330 you fly into JFK and out of JFK

with expedia you fly into JFK and out of Newark

Would this be any problem to save £10 ? how much more is a cab fare to Newark rafther that JFK

johnwey

On BA website same flights are £430 return !!

On AA website prices are £320 return !! and they fly in and out of JFK

so would you book for £320 guys or would you think this will come down at xmas ?

johnwey

the flights are non refundable but that doesnt concern us

considering that probably most of that fare is made up of taxes, i would consider that a damn good fare..........

get it booked, or lose it.

taxes are £126 actual airline fare is £194 ( £320 total )

just wondering if anyone has booked a flight to new york last xmas ( booked at xmas for later in the year ) for less than £290 . that would be the equivalent to £320 now with the £30 increase in taxes

Last years prices don't matter too much, as has been said, its a great price, book it before its gone, you've seen the price on BA's own site! Oh, and if it makes any difference, if BA and AA are the same price, very little between them but BA's free drinks includes alcohol, where AA don't.

Is £330 to the USA a good price ?

No.

It's excellent.

Get it booked, and hurry up about it.
