I had no problems finding the cheap fares for most dates in October since the web site shows you two weeks either side of your chosen dates.
However what I didn't notice until after I had paidwas that some of the flights are via Bermuda! You may want to check the schedule pages before choosing your flight since it is not shown until you are further down the booking process.

It does actually tell you this on the first page of results - there's a column which shows the number of stops next to the departure time...
Good advice to watch out for the if there's any stops though if flying direct is a priority - I dislike flying so would always opt to fly direct.0 -
I booked the recent flight offer with these guys.
Issues I have had so far:
1.Double charged . Refund 7-10 days !!
2.Rang up to ask them about the confirmation which has failed to arrive in my Inbox. Advised by staff I would receive a letter in the post and email. Both never turned up.
3.Rang them up again re: confirmation. The customer service was so poor and shocking. Still waiting for a confirmation and letter. The drama goes on.......
I regret booking already.0 -
Guys
I flew from Gatwick to NY and back from Toronto to Gatwick.
This was all in the last three weeks.
I had never flown Zoom before. On the way out I paid for extra leg room. On the way back I got regular seats.
The plane were Boeing 767s - and very modern. The food was as good as anything I have had on BA. Honestly.
The seats were all leather (unlike economy on some BA flights which have that scratchy cloth(?) material).
I paid a great price considering the flexibility - all in less than £300 (can't remember exact price as booked in advance).
The queue at Gatwick was less than 10 minutes to check in and at Toronto the queue was about the same. I could not believe it.
My girlfriend flew to NY before I did and had a longer check in time as her time coincided with other flights - apparently queued for about 2 hours.
I agree re. risk of delayed flights and the consequent lack of flexibility - I know of a friend who was delayed from the evening to the next morning due to technical problems.
My experience was absolutely fine. I noticed no compromise.
For the record, I am a fairly frequent flier (I know, I know, I should be planting trees) - probably about 15-20 flights a year over the last 4 years and have flown with carriers ranging from BA to Virgin, QUANTAS and Aeroflot.
This was a million times better that the charter flight I had from First Choice.
I will DEFINITELY use them again.
For the record I do not work for an airline....least of all them![STRIKE]Something witty[/STRIKE]0
