We're seriously considering Easter, but so far prices are horrendous for that time of year. Hopefully Kingfisher or Air India will have some decent prices when their flights come out.

Hi Fiona,

My husband and I are going to become a 6-monthers at the end of this year - whoopee. I did have flights held with Sri Lankan Airway going on 6 December but they confirmed today they are no longer going on to Goa. I now have flights booked via Southall Travel to go with Kingfisher and it saved me £162 each - what a result. Just got to get through the rest of this year!

We have booked to go from manchester staying at Senhor Angelo on 12 December for 3 weeks. Paid £10 less this year for same holiday as 2008.

We have booked our hotel and will book flights later. Sri Lankan had the Emirates slots, would it be wishful thinking that Emirates might take them up.

I am hoping my other half is thinking about booking us a holiday for next season because in April next year, I have a special birthday. As April can be very hot, we may have to go in January or February.

My other half had a special birthday in December 2007 and as his present I paid for both of us to go to our favourite hotel. With the holiday, parking, lounge and premier upgrade it was a lot of money to find, but it was worth it as he had a very special day (although having received 3 chocolate gateaux Ian was a bit chocolated out by the end of the holiday), so I am hoping he will take the hint and book us a holiday.

We will be getting on at gatwick but its amazing the difference in price! Normal seats would still have been £630 each and less time in air, it doesnt make sense does it?

ours were £868 (two of us) but of course Dec would usually be a lot dearer than Oct!! so ours still seems expensive!! we are flying to uk via bangalore and return via mumbai back to Goa..thanks daves wife..

Finnair are doing flights from Manchester to Mumbai for £359 from october. I am hoping they may come down in price to nearer £311 which is what we paid last time. Maybe it will happen if the exchange rate improves against the Euro! So do I book now or wait and keep my fingers crossed that the pound gets stronger?????

The prices have gone up since we booked our flight. The price now is about £630 I think from Manchester.

You say you are getting on at Gatwick - what's your flight number? Is the Manchester flight picking up at Gatwick. I thought we were going direct with no stops or pick ups.
