Default Prices of flights - price/time of year

Hi all

Well its that time now to start considering the prices of flights. I was hoping that you fine people would post on here the price of the flight, the time of year (date) and which airline so we can compare and work out what the trends are for cheaper airfare. I want to be nosy and know what people have paid!! If anyone knows of any low cost carriers then again please do post

Cheers

Justin

Hi we paid £418 each for one way tickets with Cathay Pacific from London to Sydney (includes transfer flights from Manchester to Heathrow) on 12th November.

The flights will get expensive on the run up to xmas/new year but should come down quite a lot after that.

We are hopefully going out to Adelaide in June of next year so prices should not be too bad at all. We got 4 kids but with airlines being the way they are the two older kids have to pay adult prices so we will have to pay for 4 adults and two kids.

But it will be well worth it !!!!!!!

I think march/april is the best time of year, and singapore are always the recommeded airline.

Sometime round the world tickets can be be just slightly more than the return if you want to see more of the world before settleling down
