    Sorry if this has already been asked but how do you actually book one of these flights?

    We want to go to Ireland in the October half term and a quick look on the checker says a return flight would be £2.99. Is that return on the same day?

    Sorry if I seem a bit thick!!

    I found a really cheap flight going out to Reus June 2nd but very expensive coming back on Sunday 5th June. Is there any chance of flightchecker giving us advise on return flights? Also are there any deals out there for travellers travelling several times a year or owners abroad?

    You need to got direct to the website of the company ie BMIbaby, Ryanair etc.
  • Great service from Flightchecker.
    But I happen to have independantly just booked a fliight single from Bournemouth to Faro for £25.99.
    But Thompsonfly is not mentioned on the airlines flying from Bournemouth.
    Why?

    Could you add Air Berlin from Stanstead to Vienna?

    having found a flight do you look at outward bound date for the single fare and then select an inbound date for the return fare? Then do you ring the airline?
  • Yes just that. But make a note of the exact date and times of the flights you want.
    I would go onto the airline website and book on line rather than phone.
    I have found a lot of these companies only book on line.
    Good luck!

    When you find two prices for the outward and inward price on this website and you click on the operators website, the prices are a lot higher so how can the prices we see on Martins site be worth anything?
  • All I can say is that mine were the same. I booked to Scotland from Bournemouth. As it is stated on each entry how many hours ago they were logged, it could well be that by the time you got to the airline website, the offers had already been taken up, proble from peeps reading this website!
    Keep trying and be flexible, I'd say.
