Poster: A snowHead
|
I know this is a long shot but does anybody have 2 Flight tickets available to Salzburg/Austria/Munich for this coming weekend 14/15 Feb and returning 21/22nd from any UK airport.
Or even somebody with space in car and wants to share the cost.
We are trying to fly out, but prices have gone through the roof so didn't know if anybody may unfortunately need to cancel theirs for any reason.
Thanks in advance for any help.

I can't help you on the flights, but we had the same problem and decided to take the train, which is much cheaper. Look at Deutsche Bahn website - you might be able to get a London Spezial ticket. Can do London to Salzburg in a day, or break journey overnight in Brussels or Paris. Also take a look at the Seat61 website if this is of interest.
Alternatively, if you can cope with a longer transfer, you could try Munich instead?

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

Try friedrichafen with Monarch from Gatwick. Or. Memmingen from Stanstead with Ryanair. But look out for ski carriage costs with Ryanair..

@dachzoad, I suspect that with many airlines, certainly easyJet, if you change names on a flight you not only pay a charge to change, you also pay the difference between the original flight cost and the current (through the roof) cost. If not, people could make a fortune becoming "ticket touts".

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

Good idea, I hadn't thought of that. Good website recommendations too.
On this occasion it came up at about £500 for the two of us, but I think that is because most trains were heavily booked and short notice. I will definately look at again in the future though.
Thanks
