New FlightChecker

  • I've booked some flights with Flybe. The price was £0.14 on the first page, but then once "charges and taxes" were added and then a credit/debit card surcharge the flights actually came to £45.

    It's still a good price but I find it slightly obnoxious that they have to try and kid you like that. Take a look at https://www.jet2.com and the low fare finder. It's a calender with the prices for each flight. They do add fees but nothing like the rediculous and disproportionate fees that Flybe do.

    It seems obvious that if you are marketing yourself on low fares that you should make them easy to book rather than hide and mislead like Flybe.
  • Flightchecker is excellent but why aren't Easyjet and Jet2 included

    Hi KD

    Not much of a help I'm afraid, but if you are doing further searches, I believe the spelling is Sofia. Not wishing to be pedantic - only trying to assist.

    Steve,

    Apologies, but the four airlines that we currently trawl only fly to Malaga from the following destinations:

    Birmingham (BHX)
    Cardiff (CWL)
    Dublin (DUB)
    Durham Tees Valley (MME)
    East Midlands (EMA)
    Exeter (EXT)
    Guernsey (GCI)
    Jersey (JER)
    Manchester (MAN)
    Norwich (NWI)
    Southampton (SOU)


    Ryanair fly London Stansted to Malaga, it would be good to have Malaga included in the destinations.
  • Can anyone explain Ryanair's pricing strategy? A flight to Pau over the last month has varied between £23.99 and £99.99. At one point it went up from £59.99 to £99.99 overnight, stayed there 1 day and came down to £79.99? I don't get it!

    It's all to do with Supply & Demand.
  • thomsonfly.com announced their summer flights yesterday - last year they came out in november?
