Thats not direct I suppose so where is it via?
Great price, Edward, guess it might be Atlanta, Georgia. Delta's Atlanta hub is the largest airline hub in the world.
We have flown into Atlanta several times, its a nice airport. Am sure you will have a great flight.

Have you signed up for skymiles with DELTA even booking with a agent you can sign up on their web site and if you travel again with them they soon mount up .
We have traveled many times with DELTA and the hostess are very polite and look after children .
Atlanta Airport have many shops and eating outlet so if you have time beween flightsyou will be ok ,
You go by train to your next departure bay just like MCO AT ORLANDO they will explain when you go to baggage pickup and they will tell you to put it onto carousel marked orlando .
Enjoy your holiday and flight .

Delta having started flying to JFK again from Manchester, so could be via New York. We flew this flight in November.
We have also flown many times with Delta and have always been highly satisfied with the service.

Great flight prices. We fly Delta because they also fly into Tampa, Sarasota and Fort Myers - so convenient for the Gulf Coast. Its worth checking back with them as there are always offers on.

The flight is Manchester - Miami via Atlanta, Georgia.
But it's not available anymore ..............
AA do direct flights to Miami, and often have great prices. Seats are very good with plenty of legroom, too.

If you are talking about Manchester to Miami you are out of date.
The Manchester to Miami service on AA stopped about a year ago. They now have a daily flight to Chicago and from April a daily flight to Boston(this flight has been seasonalApril-Dec, but might become all year round.)
Secondly the scheme giving extra legroom on all AA planes(called MRTC = More Room Throughout Coach) was not a commercial success and has been stopped. They now have the same legroom as most of the major airlines - a great pity. Everyone bleats about the lack of legroom and yet when AA offered more legroom for the same price it simply didn't attract enough extra passengers. It was the only reason I started using AA.
Well, what was £430 when I booked is still available at .... ahem ...... £793. [:O]
Good job I booked when I did.
Ed's "top tip" for flight prices : at least once per day between September and march, type what you require into ebookers or Opodo.
When you see a flight from anywhere in England to anywhere in Florida at £450 or less for the july / August school hols period, snap it up.
Downside - we're teachers so have to go in school hols time [msnsad]
Upside - we stay for 4 weeks.[:O]:D[8D]
