Scully, just keep checking can't be long now. Last year this time I was already booked with Thomsonfly, I think they are on sale now but not mega cheap yet.

Hiya,

I was just wondering what you class as a reasonable price for these flights? I almost booked through Thompson fly thinking that I had got a good price.

This year I paid £716.00 for two adults and two children for nine nights with Travel rebublic flying with Easyjet Ncl to Alic return on the 30th July. Thompson were coming in at 591.60 which I thought was good until I read your post.

Any info would be appreciated and this is only my second year of DIY travel.

You have to decide how much you think is right?? For past few years I was always happy with £150 each NCL to Palma BUT I am going end of September for £70 Booked when flights on special with Thomsonfly a few months ago. If you have definate dates its harder to find a bargain . Good Luck!!!CBG

Yes I understand about each to their own price wise, but the poster above mines flights were needed for the same time as mine and surely seasoned travellers will have some form of bench mark for fair prices.

For all I know I could have been totally ripped off with what we have paid in the past

Cheesepasty, I am sure we have all been ripped off in the past.Its so much easier to to DIY now.and we realised that the tour operators saw us coming!! Recently I have had to change my priorities as my husband is poorly and we need nice day flights as opposed to cheap and cheerful night flights. CBG

we got 5 seats East Mids to Alicante for this August (6th to 13th) at just under £500 return thru BMI Baby, we bought them the day they went on sale which was mid-September 06....although its worth noting that at 7am on that date 5 seats would have cost me £390ish...by 9.30/10am the same day when we actually booked we paid something like £498.. ! I also think it helped that we travelled Monday to Monday.... Good luck with your search.

Thanks, I ended up getting four return flights(July 28th-10 nights) for £396.00 with Jet2, after deciding to travel from Leeds/Bradford instead. I got excellent flight times and am very happy indeed with the price.
