Hi

Have been searching for costs on one way flights from Glasgow to Sydney, economy class of course! Have been getting quotes from £1500 to £6000. Yes £6000 for 2 adults and 2 kids! Ouch.

How much did you pay and how did you book with (if that's not toooo nosey). Also wondering if anyone has booked through www.airline-network.co.uk their prices seem nearer to what we can afford.

Cheers

Hi there,
We booked our flights with expedia, 2 adults 1 child from glasgow to perth and we were £1,100 in total. I know you are off to Sydney but im sure you will get better information from someone else. Also 3 years ago we booked with Airline network and they were spot on.
Good luck

Hi Andy,

Thanks for that. Never really considered Travel Agents. Used one when we validated and it was our worst experience.....apart from the lost luggage, no kids meals etc etc.....

Cheers

I've regularly used airline-network for years and never had a problem with any bookings made through them. They also tend to be very very keen with prices but do changet the flight dates around as some days in the week are cheaper than others

A good outfit, why not give them a chance to quote.

Have just got a quote today from Travelmood for 2 adults and a child travelling on 21st January 2006 - Air NZ - London to LA then connecting to San Francisco - 3 night stopover there -fly on to Auckland staying there for a week and then on to Brissie for £1457.

We booked our flights to Brissie last month with Airline Network and they were very good. (Didn't use them this time as they seemed to struggle to get us to San Fran although Travelmood had no problems with this route )

My tuppence worth from my own research:

flights on mondays and tuesdays are normally cheaper than other days.
September/ October seems the cheapest time to fly.

Heathrow - Perth booked on Singapore airlines own website was cheaper than all the other sites I tried.

4 adults 1 child £2089 one way. inc taxes
