    To all people on here... and the owner of this site or web page ... could we posibbly build a kind of flight info page... for instance.. if some one is flying from the uk to the phils on a particular date... cud we give flight info and any deals that is around those dates... by individual search... for instance.. if u have some free moments and some one has asked for flights for a particular date... if we have a few spare moments we cud advertise or inform of deals available...

    Already had things like that on the site, it results in very limited usuage as most folk use the sites they already know.

    I am booking flights now for travel from Phil to UK.

    The best deals I can find are with Kuwait Airlines and Saudi Air.......thats to london.

    Yes Emirates has ahad a considerable price hike but the other good deal is with KLM and they fly to many airports in UK so no need to battle London unless you have to.

    Thats my inputr let me know what you find...

    Booked flights with klm for september for the wife and me from brum. I used air miles for my ticket but it still cost about 350quid and about 800 for the wifes. I've also paid for economy comfort there and back which I appear to have got free and had to pay 90 quid for the wife.

    There was a big difference in price from the end of august to the start of september. September prices seem to be a few hundred quid cheaper.
    It's been emontional

    That's the way I look at it too.
    The "best" deals for me are not always the cheapest.
    I have a few airlines of choice, and a few I will never use. I also want some decent arrival/departure times and some decent transit times.
    Baggage allowances, overall service, flight changes etc etc.

    Just my opinion

    I'm gonna be going out next month sometime so I'm off to boots to get some ky cos I see a shafting coming up!
    Having used Emirates I'm going to try Brum to Amsterdam and then to Manila.. Currently it's about £850 return.

    The legal firm we are using for the visa application are suggesting that they have had a number of apps recently go through very quickly 4-14 days using good preparation techniques so I'm hoping we have the good luck and on the return I bring back Rina with me

    Considering it cost me £700 return for my first trip in 1990, and that was the going rate then (KLM).

    just my 2 cents but if travelling alone,I fly through BKK and then spend 1 day or 2 days then catch Cebu Pac onto Phills

    Weird but flights to BKK always seem cheaper as lot more competition,probably due to the high volume of tourists

    same for Hong Kong, so many competitors so quite cheap flights , plus we have so many friends there we never need a hotel.
    Live your life for a reason and don't worry be happy

    if you don't know where you are going then any road will do!!

    Angry

    ... I realise ... but from what I have heard, ... I gather prices of most everyday commodities have fairly shot-up too since the Aqino Administration took office.
