Cost of flights

Cost of flights

Postby Theboundary » Fri Oct 23, 2015 9:19 am

i have been looking forward to the day when the airlines pass on the significant drop in fuel costs to the consumer.
The CEO of Easyjet was reported to say it would be late 2015 and into 2016 before travellers benefitted.
I have already booked March May and am currently looking at July. All of these flights are at least 20% more expensive than last year.
Maybe it's time to buy shares in Easyjet?

I have never seen summer flights so expensive. All the airlines seem consistently high. Going back end August 20!6 for a wedding. 2 return flights on the days I first chose was over 1000 euros for the 2 of us. Looks like back to driving to UK.

Not just summer. Flight costs seem a lot more than they used to be. From UK to Spain they are quite cheap but going the other way they are vastly more than they used to be. For example, going to UK next month and some are charging over 200 euro to go yet as low as 56 euro to come back.

I'm wondering if it depends where you fly from or whether you are limited to specific dates as I've very recently booked 3 return tickets for next summer at a total cost of just over £240 with easyJet. This was around £5 cheaper than our flights this summer with the same airline and a good third cheaper overall than Ryanair were offering for the same period!

Good luck with finding your bargain flights :-)

You are very fortunate. Easyjet released their summer flights this week and to fly to Alicante from Belfast in July can cost upwards of £200.
