Default One Way Airfare Help Needed Please......

Soooo for the past few days I have been extolling the virtues of British Airways and their one way fare to Manchester @ $1020.00......at least that is what it still was today at about 1pm...........so I get on there tonight.......with my credit card in hand and it has gone up to $1577.00.....

Anybody got any better ideas?? I did love their excess baggage system too and you have to take it all into account.........which I did after much thinking and at 8pm they let me down the bar stewards!!

Only the first extra bag is £32, then next 9 are £72 each.

Anyway, try Etihad.

Etihad shows $1001 one way at the end of February. Wednesdays and Fridays are a tad more expensive.

From Etihad:

If you want excess bags though it will cost you an arm and a leg so is that essential?

Yes thanks it was a major plus, the excess on Etihad is $50 USD per kilo vs the pretty cheap(ish) bag rate on BA.....I will keep checking the BA site, I could kick myself for missing out on such a bargain!!

Thanks for your help.
