Any tips to get really cheap flights, UK to Miami return, over the Christmas period?

Any tips to get really cheap or even free flights?



Preferably from Manchester but any UK airport if it's a big saver.



Ideal dates: 19th Dec 07 - return 2nd Jan 08

but I'm very flexible on the dates.



Thanks.Any tips to get really cheap flights, UK to Miami return, over the Christmas period?
Returning during that first week in the New Year will ruin any chance of a real saver and departing any later than 19th is a killer too. If you can extend your trip and return on the Monday, you can get flights with US Airways for around 拢500 return.



Otherwise, the cheapest I can find is 拢532 round-trip from Manchester to MIA. However you would have to connect in London and then again in Washington. That is with United



The return is easier, MIA to Frankfurt and then onto Manchester with Lufthansa.



However, if you can get down to London (LGW), the flights are much better. For the dates you requested, 拢512 round-trip. One connection in Charlotte and that is with U.S. airways.



Either way, you still save around 拢100 per person and you won't find anything much cheaper than that at this time of the year.
Oops the final answer has disappeared... sorry, no offence to you Susan, it was someone else I was referring to. Yours and Sheena's were also v.good answers and not old and re-pasted.

Hi,

I was just checking on my favourite site on the URL : http://www.bookmyhotel.biz/airbooking.ht鈥?/a> and found that all the flights from UK to Miami will shortly be full within a couple of days. The site is showing only a few seats have been left for the dates you provide. You can yourself check on the above URL and book early so as to avoid dissapointment.

Good Luck! Seasons Greetings!
If you can leave on 24th Dec. then it will be cheaper. Cheapest of all is to leave 25th but I was warned by a travel agent not to try it as they are frequently cancelled at the last moment. Your return will be expensive too as it is before 15th Jan. Try travelsupermarket.com and try ringing Trailfinders Manchester Number 0161 839 6969. I have found them very reliable with good prices over a number of years.
