Can anyone find a better deal?
I'm looking to book a flight from London to Miami in November (11 - 28 Nov).

Best deal I can find for a direct flight is

£499 (Virgin)

Outbound: Thu 11 November 10
Departing 12:30 Arriving17:15 Duration: 09:45 Inbound: Sun 28 November 10
Departing: 19:55 Arriving09:25 Duration:08:30

or £569 (BA)

Outbound: Thu 11 November 10
Departing 09:40 Arriving 14:25 Duration:09:45
Inbound: Sun 28 November 10
Departing: 17:10 Arriving06:20 Duration:08:30

Ideally I'd like to go with BA as it leaves London earlier in the day & also leaves Miami earlier, so we don't have to hang round the airport (but what about those blooming strikes:eek:?????

TBH, I thought that there'd be a flight sale by now, but I think that's all done & dusted now...

Any advice welcome, because I've moved from rational thought to dithering:)

Thanks

Diva

Londondiva,

Have you tried American Airlines? They are usually quite competitive.

As for the sales? There is still time for a good sale to be on. We had flights to Miami in October from AA which we booked in Sept. I think they try to drum up post school holiday business.

My advice would be to sit tight and see what deals BA / others have later in the year.

Hi Damien,

If you have got a quote at this price I would jump on it. It is almost £3000 now on their website as well as for me(a travel agent to purchase).
