Book early. We're going in July. Bought the tickets last October. They are now double the price we bought them for. We're are flying Lauftansa via frankfurt to Toronto. At the time of looking they were the cheapest. |

Back in December I could have flown KLM to Vancouver for a piddly 450euro for a 3 week period over Christmas and New Year. Unfortunately I was gainfully employed at the time and would have had to leave two days after I saw the advertised flights but dang it, I sure was tempted to just casually tiptoe out the door leaving a friendly See Ya in January note. |

Here we go again , the bottom line is Tvik ,you can't book early coz the place you work at is less than cooperative about giving you time off for holidays let alone allowing you to travel back home .
Always ,always ,we have to find the cheapest way to get back to our loved ones ,nearest and dearest ,once again the people who pay your wages don't consider the fact you may have had a life and family ties and emotional connections with another country .
It used to be in the past when a flight ticket was part of an employment " package" but because we have no room or chance to negioate that "perk" has been taken away ,so in lieu of a cheap flight try travelling the way most of our employers think we deserve to , try "backpacking " .
And on the same subject of travelling home ,book now for Christmas ,next month will be TOO LATE !!!!!! |

stupid question, but are there any turkish websites along the cheeapestflights.co.uk vein? We want to book our honeymoon to thailand and don't fancy paying a surcharge to an agent. |
