We are monitoring the flights for next september and since the demise of XL the prices have climbed dramatically, we want to fly from Birmingham, well not strictly true, we REALLY want to fly from Cardiff but no chance of that unfortunately and at the moment the 7am Thomsonfly flight is going to cost us £837 !!!! This is ridiculous and will make us think very seriously before booking independantly again, needless to say we are going to wait a while before booking to see if the prices come down at all

Snap! We've found the same thing. Even for flights now the prices are anywhere between £550 and £800 for the two of us.
The only reason we're going now is because I found flights at £236 for the two of us, with Thomsons. Too good to miss!
Which reminds me, I'd better get back to the packing!

Try jet2.com. Flights from Leeds are approx 150 per head return next Sept & are at the right time for the ferry.

Re 02 Sept 09. There goes the neighbourhood again! At least we'll sneak out on the FC flight at 07:00. Race you to KS!

It's worth looking at Easyjet,I think Stelios will be trying to pick up the slots that XL had and also Aegean are looking competitive for next year

Thanks for the info Stephen ..please could you turn your caps lock off tho' ..it makes it harder to read and is considered as 'shouting' ( which I am sure you weren't )
