    zoom will charge for extras, they sometimes fly unorthodox routes (via bahamas!)..

    kuwait airlines is a dry airline, never tried them myself..

    as for good prices in june.. i've never flown then, so its hard to guess.. under £300 is an alright price for any time of year

    We have decided to change the dates for our trip as you suggested
    2 dates we are using now are- going out on the 13th and return 20th or 21st March

    Went on Lastminute and they had tickets for £233 with NWA but when I proceeded to book they were gone. Same thing happened on Travelocity aargh!!!
    I have found a similar deal on wefly.co.uk. My only concern is that their web address is different comes up as www.travelstoremaker.com
    Has anyone used this website before?

    Thanks in advance.

    Looking for one way flight options into NY for a TA cruise April 19

    Best seems to be Zoom on the 18th at £210. everyone else wants loads more than the returns. One risk with the Zoom flight is they only fly once that day, can't afford to be late we miss the ship. Tried Airlingus and hte dublin-NY flight is OK but they don't show the cheap morning leg to Dublin so the LON-NY cost is higher(will they do it by phone?)

    We picked up a US-UK BA 1 way cheapish(£160) through a US agent last year but they won't quote for the other way, anywhere I have missed for 1 ways to the US?

    The fall back is to get a return £300ish with a regular carrier with the other leg timed to tie in with a possible TA cruise later in the year but we are not sure we want to do that yet.

    any ideas?

    ashmufc...

    umm....

    when its a full moon, and the police officer on the corner of broadway and 47th is eating a donut, and an albatross flies into my garden??!

    honestly though... its difficult to decide exactly when to travel, 3 months before booking is when you'll get good fares, and july / aug will be reasonably cheap to travel, as it is summer, and NYC gets hot and very humid, so its uncomfortable to do things, as it is just so.. ugh! bear that in mind..

    This is for Markymoo.

    From memory, I think you are going to New York shortly with your sister so if you are, have a wonderful time. I've got to wait until Christmas before I'm there again, but look forward to your report as and when you return. Sally
