Booking a Charter Flight - Help

Hi folk

Can anyone please give me advice on booking charter flights. I often need to fly one way back into the UK. If you go into the likes of Thomson etc they do not let you search for available flights from a given location back into the UK only from the UK outwards or return. I know that some charter companies fly out of Preveza, Greece but simply can not search - any advice please??

    You haven't said when you are travelling but there are some flights shown here:

    Thanks for that - the problem is loads of sites, including this one recommend trying charter flights and it comes up with a list including Thomson and Thomas Cook and XL etc. However, when you click on the sites in the search option it only allows you to search from UK destinations. It is frustrating knowing there are charter flights from Preveza but I can not access them. I have managed to find others in the link you kindly provided but none of the charter guys. I am wanting to fly in September, but need to sort out soon as am getting there by boat.... Thanks

    With some destinations they just want to sell holidays or returns and not singles, perhaps check if there are one ways from larger nearby airports and get there by by boat.

    easyJet will sell a one way from Corfu to Gatwick this summer.

  • www.flythomascook.com often allows you to book one way inbound flights, but not from all airports overseas
