Flight prices from UK to DXB - what the hell!!!
Bloody hell.
Looking at flights for my folks to visit over Xmas - both Emirates and Etihad Edinburgh / Glasgow or London to DXB or AD are all approx 850 GBP per person. BA is about 510 GBP from London but need to get them to fly down there then change...
I'm sure I got them flights for about 400 GBP before.
Is it just me or have the prices from UK to here gone mental?

Mental - well flying DXB to Heathrow a few weeks ago I was charged over £1,000 - I'm flying again tomorrow, I was quoted over £1,200 - I chose Gatwick in the end for approx £850, a pain when I land, but cheaper.

My son and his friend flew out last week LBA AUH on KLM, booked about a month in advance at 460 quid. SWMBO said last week there are flights available in Ramadanadingdong for under 400.
