New Flightchecker tool feedback

There's an option to search against 'All London' airports. Could an option be added to search against 'All Scotland' as well?

"New Search" link doesn't take me to the top of the page (as displayed when no flights found)
"Search Again" link doesn't take me to the top of the page (as displayed when flights are found)

If I choose
fly away 11 October
fly back 19 October
"Roughly" 7 "days away"

I get flights out 11th October, flights back 18th October

If I change to "Roughly" 6 "days away"
I get flights out 11th, 12th October, flights back 17th, 18th October

>> If I want to go "Roughly" 7 days, why not show the flights on the 12th (out) and 17th (back). It seems the current functionality is using "Exactly" 7 days away when the page says "Roughly". If the searching is truly meant to be "Roughly" then it is conceivable that I would be happy going for 6 days when I want to go for roughly 7.

London to Boston is a bit odd
Trying 21st October out, 30th back and searching for maximum £275 each way, I get:
"Your search produced no results.
The cheapest flights in your date range are between £412 - £446"

Then I search maximum £350 each way, and results appear from £330.21.

Given the second search, I would have expected the first to indicate the "...cheapest flights in your date range are between £331 ..."?

Also, there appear to be no airlines for Boston other than Aer Lingus, whereas Expedia finds lots of other airlines

Interesting tool. Found it easy to use. Like the "I'll go anywhere" option. Extra charges option is good but I think it would be nice to have some description of what this means before you select it as wouldn't have assumed it meant things like credit card payments. The table that comes up when you select the flight is a bit confusing! Took me forever to understand why the colours were different sizes etc. I'm sure this could be done in an easier to understand way.

Hi

How do you define city breaks? When I picked this option I didnt get any flights for my dates, but when I picked I will go anywhere I got several places I would consider for a city break.

Thanks

blinking heck !!!

I'm looking to book some flights from the north to Alicante in May and thought id try the flight checker and blinking heckers like its dear!!! and it doesnt find half the flights that are out there, shame that!

id like to see an option to pick airports from the north eg manchester, leeds, eastmids, doncaster and any others up here

Mobeer -> we provide tabs for you to switch around the number of days away you will be - so you can work out whether it's worth you while to stay an extra day longer, or shorter.

lotterywinner -> we're still defining our list for city breaks

busterkeye -> can you provide some examples of what you think we're missing please?

Thanks,
Adam

love it.

the date picker is awkward - it could do with an option to select 2012 otherwise you have to use the forward arrows to get to next june. Trip Length - suggest you add the word nights (if thats what it is?) Once you get to the final screen with your choices, the filters on the left should also include the ability to do a whole new search / edit of your selection.

its good though - i like it a lot...
