  • TC - 24 hour Flash sale to the US West Coast coming soon. From 12pm (midday) on 1 February until 12pm (midday) on 2 February 2018 get a great flight deal to Seattle, San Francisco and Los Angeles.

    yeah, saw that when looking earlier at TC, so not going to book anything just yet!
    Target is minimum 11 Nights in Vegas.... I done my Research....

    TC - MAN - LAX = £492 with seat choice = 12 Nights in Vegas

    BA & VA - DUB - LAS = £440 with Hoop Jumping & 1 night hotel = 12 Nts Vegas

    I think If TC do some deals tomorrow to bring that cost down even more, think i'll go with the direct route (as much as I love getting my costs down!)

    yeah, that's what I read Brats...
    for US travel, if coming from a certain country, your OK as long as your passport is still valid whilst in the country :):)
    Fingers crossed that TC do some £300 return details tomorrow, as I'm gonna be booking!
    Time to sweet talk my hosts at hosts Lux and MC !! :D

    Who is your host at Luxor? Arrive there tomorrow

    Conflicted on what upgrade to ask for and what if anything it is worth paying for it.

    Hi all

    Can someone help me on this one please ?

    Say i have enough Virgin flying club points and upgrade vouchers to get in Premium Economy - approx how much would the taxes and other costs be for return flight to Vegas ( off peak - Oct-Nov ish time ) ?

    I just want to work out whether its best to blow the points on the above, or save them and pay cash for a Thomas Cook / Norwegian flight instead ?

    Thanks

    Looking at my setup at the moment, Cattle class starts from 30k upwards for a seat and sets around £223 in taxes.....
    PE is showing close to £400 in taxes, and I think u need 45k points onwards for PE with Virgin......

    I'm saving my points till next year, and hoping that come 12 today, these TC flights to West Coast are in my price range, as I want to be booking my flights! :D

    Oh well,
    Thomas Cook 'Flash Sale' = Prices exactly same..
    Can see 1 bizarre combination to get a price just over £300.... but not so good dates!

    Back to the DUB route for me!
  • I did not think the combination was too bad for £300.00.
    Out 12th, 14th, 16th, 19, 21st of May.
    Back 19th, 21st, 23rd, 26th, 28th of May.
