On sale now. You need to be a bit creative by selecting a date before 5th February on the front page and then selecting the "3 week view" to see availability beyond that.

Booked. There was a new screen after entering credit card details that said due to high demand the price had gone up by three pounds while we were booking.

Easyjet March flights don't look particularly cheap to me, eg BHX-GVA Sat to Sat mid March £150 incl 1 bag. Not cheap compared with that Flybe example quoted above by @alti - dude,

I can get easy jet EDH-GVA Wed - Tuesday in March for £62

Am a bit frustrated that their schedule finishes on the 25th March which is right at the start of the Easter holiday season. We're flying out then but returning 1st April so can't book both flights. Would have preferred Southend-Geneva but can't guarantee they will be continuing the service for the return flight. So went for 4 x Gatwick-Geneva for £180 including three bags, coz at least I can be sure I can get a return flight on that route.

Half term for 4 including the expensive front row seats (my lads are 6'5" & 6'3" so it's a necessity!!) from Edinburgh for under £600 v early this morning.
Same flights 4 hours later are now almost a grand & sleazy jet also appear to have increased the costs of your bags too by a few quid!!
The whole half term rip off really makes my blood boil. Thank God this is my last year of it!

You don't believe in market pricing, @malarkey99? Good work getting your 4 flights for under £600. My daughter and son in law, both teachers, had initially planned to ski in February half term (they stay with me and I can do airport transfers etc) but they teach in different local authorities with different holiday dates. Or I'd have been up pushing buttons in the early hours, too.

@malarkey99, £600!!!!!!!, I was refreshing website from 5.15 onwards. the best I could do was £130.00 per head but that is Monday - Monday, Did you get a Saturday for that price?

@Jonny996, from around 6:00 am if you did what I did i.e. select a date that was before the new dates and then select "3 Week View" you could book the flights. The front page wasn't letting you book the dates directly until after 8:00 am.

Exactly the same flights now increased by £65 to £215. Think I'll look elsewhere!

I feel cheated my flights have only gone up £25!
As EJ now announce when they are releasing flights which creates a completely understandable mini buying frenzy I wonder how much money they have taken today????
Quite clearly their website can cope with this surge - unlike a certain government one (OK I know that was exceptional and people really shouldn't wait till 20 minutes to go before registering to vote).
For the full chapter and verse on how to 'beat the rush', please see the following link:
http://flights-blog.lowcostroutes.com/2014/09/how-to-book-an-easyjet-flight-before-tickets-for-it-go-on-sale/
You can always set up e mail alerts with them (and other airlines) for releases. I have no connection with the site but they are reliable and have never sent me any spam. The owner did appear on sH a couple of times.

When I checked flights from Bristol to Geneva half term about 6:00 this morning, flights from midday onwards was cheap £60 ish but the 2 flights first thing in the morning were over £100 then, are these times ever cheap or do they remain at a higher price ?

The flights to Venice from Edinburgh only run on a Friday & Sunday so decided would skive youngest son off school a half day. So we fly out Fri 10th & come back the following Sunday. I think I was just lucky to catch the flight as it was released. I was watching several & had had an email from lowcostroutes re Munich flights & just checked the Venice one as well as it was the one I actually wanted. You had to toggle the 3 week view to see the one you wanted as it didn't show up on the normal date search.
Same flight is now £1700 for 4 which seems criminal to me.
