                    Its costing me a fortune commuting between London and Dubai.
Does anyone know any insider tips or secret deals on getting really cheap direct flights?
AD and Sharjah have good bus connections.

            I was looking for a "bleeding heart" smily, but couldn't find one.
 I guess your tax free Dubai salary package might help off set the "fortune" it is costing you to commute between London and Dubai.0

            Speak to an airline sales, they may be able to give you some form of a "commuter" discount, at the very least join flyer clubWins Pre-2011 : Arctic Monkeys Tickets

            Direct flights you really are limited aren't you.
 Indirect you have more choice
 I usually use the "flexible dates grid" on https://www.Lastminute.com to find the cheapest days to fly.
 Then jump on to https://www.traveljungle.co.uk to sqeeze another few quid off price.
 Then using Quidco or Topcashback is maybe going to save you up to £10 per flight dependant on who you book with.
 Then if you use a CASHBACK CREDIT CARD, you maybe get up to 5% back
 Frequent flyer miles may get you some freebies or upgrades0
