Split.... those are better prices with Qatar but November has had dodgy weather for the last couple of seasons with heavy rain extending well in to the month.
Shirley, Good luck ! Incidentally, Qatar fly to Cochin in Kerala ( and Trivandrum) and it costs much less than flying to Goa ( excluding special offer prices). All down to supply and demand I guess as it's further to Kerala so economically it doesn't make sense from a fuel point of view ! We were considering flying in to Kerala and out of Goa but having read the experience of an HT member about the train in his report, I decided it wasn't for us.
cheers Dave

Thanks for the tip Aarond , the cheapest I have found so far is Indigo
Thompsons have a flight sale on at the moment £499 from gatwick nov/early dec.
Booked a Monarch flight for 3 weeks in Feb £700 each. We flew with Monarch this year and it was absolutely fine, other than not having your own TV in the back of the seat, it was as good a flight as any other we've been on to Goa. The flight times are good too. Its cheaper to book with Jewel in the Crown than direct with Monarch.
Roll on Feb!
Roll on Feb!

I'll bear that in mind, thanks Noggin.
As it happens we have now booked to go to Kenya this winter but we will almost certainly return to India in 2012/13.
I am missing the place already but determined that if we leave it a year we will go back with renewed enthusiasm.
Must admit though, travelling to Kenya with Monarch Holidays they use scheduled airline Kenya Airways and a three week half board holiday works out much cheaper than 3 weeks in Goa on a B&B basis flying with Monarch . It will be interesting to follow price patterns over the next year or two. Goa is getting more and more expensive from a flight point of view and from my perspective I need to go for at least 4 weeks to make it worthwhile.
cheers Dave
