Hi,

 

It's not an exact science, but one girl who works at lastminute told me January is a good time to book. Maybe it's a quiet month after Christmas and targets have to be met ?

Definitely after Christmas and New Years as more deals are offered after the peak holiday season--when they can charge you more than double at that time.

hello, Mak. Well, hate to say it but it depends..... I wanted to use an award trip so as everyone knows those babies are very limited and book out FAST! I already booked for June/July of 2007 using miles and I was lucky to find something available. If it's a regular booking for June/July? I think the best thing to do if you can be VERY flexible is to wait. Hotels will be a plenty - no worries there. Prices will fluctuate midly between FEB/JUNE with an inclination to lower as June approaches. As long as your dates are flexible I think it best to wait. Mind you, this pearl of wisdom is solely based on what I've read on these boards and the two trips I've taken (Jan/Dec) and (June/July). Good luck and do let us know what the outcome is? Cheers.

Depends on what country you are flying from......

Last Jan - BA and Qantas had a Jan sale, for flight booked between the 30th April and 31st July.

 

Price about £450 including taxes, flying from Heathrow.

 

For a 12 hour direct flight a very good deal - I advise all Brits to wait and see if the offer is repeated.

 

Regular food and drinks on flight with good entertainment system. I'll be flying with Qantas again.

I dont think any fast rules in uk ,I fly out last July paid £392 and flying out in Nov payed £402

 

What I do is when I know when i am going I check weekly and when I happy with price I book

there and then ,

 

 

In my advantage I can be very flexable with my holidays and travel dates .
