Ok...ok $89 each way.....so thats $178 (IF your leaving from the East coast!)....Plus tax's etc....If your central, its still about $500.00
AA just dropped there prices, looks like I'm going back for my birthday in September, another bonus will be, that I have enough airmiles with AA for a free flight next summer.

Wife & I are going to the UK for $ 312.50 each in December. Early than that can be dearer.

During the 3 years that my wife and I had a transatlantic relationship, we always used Priceline.com.
I noticed them advertising a lot more on TV before I left England and I suspect that they're not the bargain they used to be. But up until last summer, we were still getting return flights from Los Angeles to Heathrow (or vice versa) for less than $350 each, and that was peak season with no transfers.. The couple of times we travelled from Heathrow to New York, it was less than $150.
I've never seen these under $100 prices everyone is talking about, but I'm going to start looking!

Eww, I hate Newark Airport! I was stuck there for five hours once...
Doesn't Delta fly direct from Atlanta to Gatwick? They usually have some good deals going.

I'm with you on disliking Newark. That airport drives a lot of people up the wall. I've personally seen and felt the frustration in the slow customer service line at Newark. If you've got time for an extra day's stopover, hours of delays both ways and baggage arriving later in the week of your trip, it's not so bad for a rock bottom fare.
