    Good lord! Every time I see a good offer its always from London, with an extra cost from Manchester.

    Have you looked at Newquay>Dublin/Dublin>Chicago?

    Yes the flights don't line up, so its always an overnight stay in Dublin. I had hoped this would be the way to go, but Air Fungus messed it up
    NO to pasty tax We won!!!! Just shows that people power works! Don't be apathetic to your cause!
  • Theres a few new Trans Atl routes started from Edi and Glas and seats to fill that may have pushed prices down as we no longer have to transit via LON/AMS etc

    Random Example. I want to go to Chicago. Its where my daughter lives. I choose Expedia for convenience as some of the flight scanners have prices for travel agents that I don't trust.

    Heathrow - Chicago is a major business route and there's a World convention in Chicago from 15th to 18th November.
