Price of flights??

[Gerry Reed]

We have just booked flights with Thomson on the dreamliner in April/May for £428 each + luggage (£70 a case) - really pleased. As we have lots in our owners cupboard we are going to book just one case between us (3).
We have never flown to Sanford before so looking forward to a change.

Ooh, no I wasn't, but I'd like to try and stick with BA if I can (frequent flyer miles).

I vaguely recall a page on the BA website saying which routes the Dreamliner was flying - I might go and have a check.

Off the top of my head, I think it's just Newark and Toronto at the moment. I am sure Orlando isn't 1 of the destinations though but I have recently read something that suggested they're thinking about putting an A380 on the Miami route sometime in the future..

Seems to be a new player on the market, NORWEGIAN AIRLINES, they just opened a base in London Gatwick with the new Boeing 787 Dreamliner, I noticed they offer free WIFI on board! They start May 29th to ORL but via Oslo £580 rtn, more affordable I guess if you don't mind waiting in Oslo for 3hr 55min
I noticed they also fly to FT. Lauderdale with a direct flight, I tried to check the price but for the moment they say their experiencing Heavy Traffic on their website. As we know Competition is sometimes beneficial so lets hope the other airlines take note and lower their price.

I would do some searching before even dreaming of booking an Orlando flight with Norwegian. On a different forum there is a pilot from another airline. There are many horror stories and Norwegian may not even be able to fly into MCO later this year when their permit runs out. Be very careful. Sometimes the saying "you get what you pay for" is very true. People have been delayed 2/3 days recently so check everything out carefully.

Indeed.

I'll be waiting to see how this all works out before I would consider parting with any of my money to Norwegian. To be honest I think they seriously jumped the gun when they announced their fares and routes and are now getting their fingers burnt.

It will be a disaster for all the passengers who already jumped on the bandwagon of 'cheap flights' as things don't look good at the moment!!
