Re: my rant
Well someone pm'ed me the other day and told me about orbitz, went on there and had a look, a ticket could cost me around $900 (inc. taxes and fees), so hub and I talked, and it is possible to do! 
I have had an offer of a flat over there, so hopefully if that doesn't fall through and nothing goes wrong, I should be going home early September, the day before my daughter's 6th birthday. I would give anything for that to happen, I haven't seen her or my son since last October
It is a really big daydream of mine just lately, to walk up to the front door on her birthday and surprise her. She keeps asking me to come home, which breaks my heart every time.

I just had a look at Orbitz, it does seem much cheaper than the sites I normally use. I'll save it for future use. Thanks!

Still better to find the flight with a company like Orbitz/Expedia see who the Airline is and then go to the site and book direct with them 9 times out of 10 its cheaper.

Re: my rant
Well it's around $850 right now, but give or take a bit, it will be around $900. That's September 2nd - September 21st (return for cheapness) That's a non stop flight with bmi, whose flights are operated by US Airways which is cool because it would be a non stop flight.

Re: my rant
Bmi is never cheap believe me.
For a 1 way try these guys www.1800flyeurope.com but call them as the price's can be cheaper then the site.

Try vayama.com. i got my husband a o/w ticket for august for $450 (incl. taxes and fees) from newark to london. it's with sas through copenhagen. i was a bit concerned because it was much cheaper than other sites, but we got the ticket and checked with united (it's operated by sas) and he's on the flight.

), Newark is the only one for us, with Philly coming in a close second (that IS a pricey airport for itnernational flights)
