    No we didnt!

    Paid £18 in total...
    2 adults
    2 x airport check in = £6
    1 x bag check in = £3
    2 x handling fee = £6

    No tax listed whatsoever

    How I wish my easysearch flight finder was still working, it was great at spotting the cheapest. I wonder whatever happened to Johnny Indigo. Anyone know?

    I had Glasgow to Dublin on 27th/28th April. Price showed 0 (not like the old site where it had ask for £0.01) but it still wanted £10 each way UK Air Passenger Duty so some, but not all the "taxes, fee and charges" may still be payable.
    I've just looked at their press release and it says "including taxes and airport charges". The APD is a Government charge so that may be why they want it paid
    These flights do not currently appear on Martin's Flightchecker - maybe it takes time to update.
    The "Flexible Dates" option only goes +/- 3 days so not as good as the previous feature mentioned above.
  • are you all accessing the 1p flight area by using the flight booker on the LHS of the home page? it doesn't offer me anything unde £29.99 for anything I have looked at so far ...

    Got myself a day trip to Dublin for my wedding anniversary from EMA. Shannon seems free to so maybe it's just Irish destinations again.

    I went to their homepage, then Site Map at the top, cheap flight finder and entered the flight I wanted...

    No taxes on either flight I've now booked (LGW to Dublin... Shannon to LGW) but still the charges for non-online booking and luggage.

    Yes - and then just picking some dates and destinations at random.

    The +/- 3 day option does seem very good as it just shows tabs for the other days which must be opened. Just as quick to have selected Next Day/Previous Day from the usual screen.

    I could not find any 1p flights. All I could see is £0.0 but with £40 airport taxes and fees. Has anybody managed to book a 1p flight?
  • not me... i dont even know where to look... surely Ryanair can't leave it as a Guess the 1p destination and not give us any blacout dates etc!?!?
