Dubai flights

Options
I'm looking at going to Dubai in March/April time next year. At the moment, the flights I've found are about £370-380 for direct flights and about £350 for flights with a stop over. I just wondered if these prices seem reasonable? I imagine it would probably be better to book as far in advance as possible, but is it worth waiting to see if there are any offers? Does anyone have any advice?

Thanks

Sarah

    Hi
    I am in the process booking flights to Dubai at the moment.
    Around £350 is about the best I can find.
    This is direct with BA day flights both ways,Royal Brunei,booked via Southall travel,day out,night back.
    There are sometimes cheaper flights on Southall with indirect flights,via Turkey,Qatar etc .
  • Seems about right. All I can recommend is you trawl through Kayak, Skyscanner, Opodo, Expedia, Ebookers etc.

    I'm also booking but for 13 Jan - best I have found £366 direct with BA... make that £359 on kayak with BA
    Man plans and God laughs...
    Perhaps travel cannot prevent bigotry. But by demonstrating that all people cry, laugh, eat, worry and die, it introduces the idea that if we try to understand each other, we may even become friends.
  • I've just found the £359 BA flights too, they seem pretty good. I've not come across Southall before, so I'll try there too, thanks!!

    I've just booked my flights on Opodo... using Matin's £20 discount code and booking through Topcashback so got a smidge over £25 off.
