Hiya Guys and Girls!
Ive just been invited to my best friends wedding in chicago in May.
Id love to go, but its gonna be a tight stretch trying to get the money together in time.
Im just wondering if anyone knows of the best place to get flights to Chicago, I would want to fly from Manchester or Liverpool and need to leave here between the 22 and 24th of May. I was hoping to stay for about a week. I dont mind how many stops i have to take etc :o

Any ideas or suggestions are very welcome and appreciated!

Thanks all :)

J

    Cheapest flights are BA from Manchester via Heathrow but for not much more, you can fly direct with bmi from Manchester

    here's what I've managed to dig up for you.
    BA will charge you an eye watering £501 for an indirect flight, BMI will charge you £404 if you go on the 22nd and back on the 29th (direct) and AA will charge you £404 for a direct flight as well (out on 22nd, back on 29th)
    Diamond Olly, where did you get your info that BA are cheapest from Man-Ord ?
