Who are you flying back with
Just wondering for those going back to England which airline you are flying back with and who generally has the best deals etc.
Having a quick look I saw Etihad Airlines are offering pretty cheap flights compared to the rest has anyone used them before ? and how come they seem so much cheaper ? maybe longer stop overs etc ? or am I getting a seat on the wing or something ?

I got in on the Qantas two for one deal - 3 adults and one child for 5700 return. Qantas do often have some really good deals if you look for them and being a frequent flyer helps too. Mind you, if I were only going one way, I would lash out and go first class (OK well business or premium economy maybe) because I would be so darned happy to be escaping!

Re: Who are you flying back with
Hi just wondering are these booked through a travel agent or on-line? I have never booked long haul flights on-line and am a bit nervous of doing it as we want a stop-over for a few nights, any thoughts anyone. I have looked at emirates on-line from NZ (sorry I know this thread is from OZ) 2 adults & 2 kids 20th march NZ$3,842.99 but no stop-overs. Also was looking at other thread on here and some said Royal Brunei Airlines (they seemed cheap too think the thread was from OZ) Sue1
