Advice on flights from UK

[lilbasuk]

Thank u everyone for the input. I have lots to consider and lots of useful info to look into. Ideally, I would like a cheaper flight but on the other hand I wouldn't like to compromise on the flight time too much. I feel about 20 hours is long enough to be sitting on planes and in airports lol! Obviously my ideal departure airport would be Birmingham, but I would consider other airports if it still proved cost effective. I'm going to be travelling around the 14th of July and coming back around 8th of August. Thanks again everyone for your input

We went last year with Cathay from London and booked direct, if you go on their site you can play around with departure dates and times to give a better price. It was just a few quid more then travel agents but felt more confident with booking direct.

By the way I think Cathay must have one of the fastest routes to P.I. , although last year I had a few problems with both the outward and homeward journeys, very unusual for Cathay who are our 1st preference followed by Singapore.
