try https://www.flyvlm.com but its from London City not heathrow.
also i dont think they do saturday flights.
Not much help sorry xx
Oohh have you tried BA they do cheapies sometimes.0 -
Don't know if this would be an option for your family?
http://www.dutchflyer.co.uk/
It is basically a train and ferry offering. May take a bit longer but it may also be cheaper.
Here is a Guardian article about it: http://travel.guardian.co.uk/countries/story/0,7451,1485059,00.html"An eye for an eye leaves the whole world blind" - Mahatma Gandhi0 -
There are only two airlines who operate from Schipol to Heathrow; BA and KLM
http://www.ba.com quotes €144 (£98) return for the dates/times you're after
BA427 / AMS-LHR / Economy / Sat 2 July 2005 / 09:55 - 10:20
BA442 / LHR-AMS / Economy / Mon 11 July 2005 / 17:40 - 19:50
NB. The above flights are examples as other times are also available
Included in this fare are the taxes/fees/charges of £50 (each flight is only £23!)
It's worth remembering that each airport sets it's own costs and LHR is the most expensive in the UK - so regardless of whether you fly BA or KLM, the price you pay will be about the same
If you want/need cheaper, you'll have to use a different 'London' airport. Airlines who serve London City Airport (LCY) operate very limited schedules at weekends as the airport is primarily used by business travellers0 -

Have you considered Luton? easyJet are quoting under £50rtn which is quite a bit cheaper0

Doubt if you'll do better than https://www.easyjet.com & it'd be a MUCH easier car journey to Luton Airport, rather than Gatwick!

Thnx to all
i have decided that the saving at easyjet are just too good so i will be picking my family up from luton & then droping them of at gatwick hen they go home
PS: gatwick is kinda easier for me to get to than Luton , Lunton is far but by going for easyjet i save £90 and i can drive really far for that amount fo fuel !!
Thaks ALL0
