If I do the seperate internal flights is there any visa type things I need to be aware of or is the ESTA plus the obvious passport, ect all I need?
thanks
The ESTA gets you into the country. Once you are there just just need valid photo ID for an internal flight.0 -
With internal flights in the US, the taxes, fees and charges can be low on one way internal flights, this means that if you have some frequent flyer miles it can be a good way for spending them, but always double check prices on no frills airlines such as www.southwest.com www.jetblue.com.
With www.spiritair.com the carry on luggage allowance size is small, with extra charges for larger items.
Wow, sprint air is giving me some fantastic prices and quite tempted to join up with their $9 fare club as I do plan to retun to the USA in December again doing multi stops
I cant seem to find any luggage info tho??

Ok folks, thanks for all you help and advice and have decided to fly LON-NY then do an internal seperate (just need to tweak my dates to get the best fare for the internal leg which works out very a very good price even with 1 suitcase)
However BA and Virgin cost the same, and from my little research people have said for economy BA is better, but not sure about them though since all the strike business, but for a long haul with kids and one being a toddler who loves to fly (he asks me everyday when we are going on the plane like we can just hop on and off like a bus
) I really need comfort, good entertainment and good legroom 0 -

To be honest, there isn't that much difference between BA and Virgin in economy. And I'm not sure I'd be expecting "comfort, good entertainment and good legroom" - usually it's a matter of grinning and bearing it for 7 hours.0 -
Hoxton, glad you finally got sorted.
Have a great time.

I take it you have never been on a long haul Thomas cook flight then? 9 hours to the Dom republic on what I can only describe as a tin can, it really cant get any worse. I am not expecting Emirates or Qatar airlines standard, but anything must be better that TCX0 -
Some virgin aircraft A340 have 2-4-2 seating which may be better if there are just 2 of you.Posts are not advice and must not be relied upon.0

Nope, me and the kids, I would prefer to go with BA as I have been on BA (shorthaul) and found it very comfy, my sister went with virgin to orlando and she was not impressed, but you never know when BA will start thier strikes again which really worries me

The planes and seats are different, the long haul planes don't have the leather seats in economy, they're cloth.Posts are not advice and must not be relied upon.0 -
