    I want to book 4 one-way flights from Stanstead to Bergerac on either the 30th May or 4th June and can't find any 0.01 flights only 29.99 or 19.99 respectively. I've done the 20+ days search just to see what dates the 0.01 flights are and can't find any. Can you????

    What you will tend to find is that the 0.01 flights are available to places where there is more than one flight per day. I haven't checked Bergerac but I would think it only has 1 flight a day, so subsequently no 0.01.

    You can spend hours on there searching for flights. :o

    Don't know where you are flying from but £30 to Poland sounds pretty damn cheap to me, if that's a return incl. taxes?

    I've been looking quite a lot myself and £20 for the full journey (from London anyway) incl. taxes is absolutely minimum. Some places are not that cheap, like eg. Malta or Gran canaria. It's difficult to find return flights to under £80-100 to those places. Even the cheap (eg. spain) can have much more expensive flights depending on which day you fly.

    Try and search using http://www.kayak.co.uk - I find it quite good.

    The prices i mentioned were for a single, as if i had found a return for £30 it would have been snatched up!

    Flights to Poland used to be quite cheap even a year ago, but now I think will all the incresed traffic to and from Poland, the airlines have wised up a little.

    Yeah there is only one flight per day, so advertising Bergerac as one of the 0.01 qualifying locations is a bit of a con if your theory is correct. Boo!

    There will be 1 or 2 0.01p flights, but it's likely to be on an obscure Tuesday or Thursday, not Fri, Sat or Sun.

    You can go from Saturday 2nd June - 9th June for £20 return, that's about it really.

    Skyscanner (https://www.skyscanner.net) is a better tool for finding cheap flights,
    The flight checker is pretty pointless with only six airlines, excluding Easyjet - Skyscanner has dozens

    :confused: It does not contain Iran, Azerbaijan, Armenia, Georgia...

    Now, remind me what website we're on?!!
    Moneysavingexpert.com not "completeandutterruthlessb*stard.com" :D
    ...or do you believe the pursuit of money takes priority over all other concerns ?

    Kev...your havin' a laff........wasn't so long ago the big airlines of Europe were shaftin the whole of the population.........and still providing a crap service.

    If they were such bad employers.....why aint they got no employees?...huh????

    THE most profitable airline in the EU.......

    You obviously know little about Michael O'Leary and his management 'style'. Perhaps you ought to talk to some of his staff. https://www.pprune.com would be a good start. ...and personally, I wouldn't put my family on a plane that's run by unhappy crew being continually pressured to cut turnaround times. Did none of you see the Dispatches programme on C4 last year about budget airlines' safety, and Ryanair in particular ? I'd rather walk thank you very much. :eek:
