  • Cheapest is £1432. Nice try though
  • Thanks Malkie. Guess I will just have to keep checking to see if prices reduce.
  • Thanks Richard. Yes aware of TAP but travel time is very long because of being indirect. Can take many more hours

    Seats have only just become available for these dates the last day or 2. Cost, over £600 each return.

    A week earlier, seats are £59.

    I suspect, if not a case of a mad rush on Madeira tickets, this is one of two things
    1) as the seats have just been released, they have not released all the fare buckets as yet...sometimes the lower fare buckets appear a week or so after flight release
    2) they are not releasing the lowest fare buckets as this may be a peak period

    I suspect the first one...there is an assumption that seats will be at their cheapest as soon as released...this is not always the case
  • Hi Caz, that is what I am hoping.

    Thanks all for your replies
  • Does anybody know when Easyjet and Ryanair will be releasing their April 2018 flight dates?

    Easter is earlier next year and some airlines will already have flights on sale, check their prices now, if fares are good it may not be worth waiting for easyJet and Ryanair.

  • Hi, saw Martins show Tuesday 21st November on ITV, checked Easyjet this morning (22/11/17).
    Got 5 tickets to Palma in September 2018 + reserved seats from Southend airport for only £266.40! Amazing.
    Thank you

  • When are Aer Lingus flight release dates? Why is this airline not included in the general list on MSE? Many like me use Dublin for many flights....

    Aer Lingus don’t generally release flights in batches like easyJet.
