Morning all. If anyone knows when next years flights are released, could they please post on here? Would like to book flights early, as this year cost us a fortune booking late. Cheers Raff

jowissett2003@yahoo.co.uk

Hi All
I have been following this thread with interest.
My Wife & I spent 2 weeks in Arillas this July and enjoyed it so much we have already booked to return in 2015 with our Son & his girlfriend also joining us.
I booked through Thomsons - Flying from Leeds Bradford on 3rd July and staying at the Mathraki again for 2 weeks - which has cost us just over £1700. (which I was happy with)
I would be interested to know what kind of saving are we looking at if we were to book flights & accommodation independently.
It seems a lot of you regularly do so and I am not averse to booking independently for 2016 if it means we have more Mythos money!!!
Thanks
Neil & Jill

A guesstimation admitably ,,,,, but I reckon you would save about £700 doing that down the independant route as long as you get in early on your flights !
-
Easyjet are saying on twitter that flights will be released next week ,but not giving the day yet!,

Hi Again
Am I missing something?
I have just priced up a holiday for 4 adults staying in the Alex Studios.
A studio for 2 weeks is 700 Euros so roughly £540 at present
2 Studios would therefore be roughly £1080
I have then looked at Easy Jets flights to Corfu from Manchester.
At present they are only showing May but I used this as an example.
So flying out on Friday 15th May & returning Friday 29th May (At awful times!!!) comes in at £941
So.......Accommodation & flights totals roughly £2020 which is more than I paid for good flight times with Thomsons next Year.
Is it just a case of getting in early, do you need to live down South or have I missed something?

Donpipez has got a good deal for himself.Even independently when you include luggage,transfer,flights and accommodation I think it would be hard to beat his price in July. Maybe other forum members have been able to do better deals.If so if so please let us into your secret.
-
Don't think Truth realised it was for four adults. Two double rooms and four flights would cost you more than that for a fortnight in July. Two hundred and fifty quid each was a bit unrealistic I think ;-)
The flights are cheaper the first few hours after release but increase by the minute.

I think it all depends on when you want to go and where to stay.
We are all going next year. There will be 4 adults and 2 children going to Arillas in July from the 12th. 2 staying for 10 nights, the others for a week.
Booked independently, flying with Ryanair and staying at Bardis Sun Hotel, which includes breakfast, with taxis to and from resort is going to cost around £1700. I just priced the same dates for same people with Thomson and it would cost £2500.
You got a really good deal Neil and Mathraki is fantastic.

You have got a super deal too Sharon, glad to hear that there are bargains to be had.
Everyone who stays with Dorita says how nice it is.

What time of day/night are easyjet flights usually released please?
-
Last year it was around 8am if I remember rightly.
-
Its worth noting that great prices can be more readily had if you are not restricted to school holidays like we are. I would imagine that Mathraki price would be much higher once you hit July 18th. Our cost for 4 last year for two weeks in July school holidays came to around £1300. I am however very particular about wanting to stay in my particular accomodation which is only available independently. If you don't mind staying a little way back from the seafront some amazingly cheap rooms can be found which would bring down these savings much further.

I have an alert set up with Lowcostroutes for Manchester _ Corfu flights and have just received an e-mail saying that Jet2 have removed all flights from Manchester to Corfu for next year.Has any forum member heard the same. Ron.
-
Just seen this on easyjet facebook page
Just been told by your customer services by phone(although I selected UK I am sure I was put through to a "distant" country" for my query) that you will not be releasing your June 2015 flight availablity until 15th October 2014? Is this correct please
Still being given standard reply ,will be released in next few weeks

I REALLY hope not as I have booked with them for next May !!!
-
I have just done a "dummy booking" and its still letting you book May 2015 flights to Corfu from Manchester so I am not sure what that E mail is all about ?
-
BA are starting flights from Heathrow to Corfu next May flying on Thursday, fri, sat and mon. Just looked and flights next May are £65 each way or £85 with 23k baggage.
-
Glad to see another route to Corfu opening. Can only be good for the island's economy, and those who can use Heathrow easily. So far they are aggressively priced - we even looked carefully at booking July tonight. At the moment we could save a little compared to what we expect from EasyJet Bristol,
but...
living near Bristol, and getting on a bit, the much easier journey to Bristol airport is worth more to us than a small saving. Ha Ha! I am assuming we get EasyJet at a price similar to last year! Won't be long now before we know......

Anyone with any thoughts on Jet2 stopping all Manchester-Corfu flights? Anyone else booked with them for 2015 from Manchester? Surely this can't be correct . . . . . . .?
-
Hi
I've also booked with Jet2 for September next year from Manchester but I haven't heard anything to say they have cancelled my flights. Maybe Lowcostroutes have got it wrong - I certainly hope so because I got the flights at a good price.

I am sure they must have got it wrong , lets hope so ......
I am not worrying too much for now as they are still selling the route BUT saying that it doesn't mean a lot knowing the way these flight companies work
-
Easyjet have posted on twitter and facebook flights will be released towards the end of next week ,said they will post as soon as they have a date.
-
Just noticed in the paper British Airways are flying out to Corfu next summer... I just had to be nosey and price it up...
Flight times are 10.55 outbound and 18.00 departing Corfu £106 each way per person for August BH 2015 including luggage if you just have hand baggage they are £84 each way. I must admit I was pleasantly surprised! Just adds another option for some of us southerners :)
-
Sorry Dai had missed your post about BA already! I must have been too busy dreaming of next years hols! ;)
-
Made you look haha!! Any day now folks...
-
Jo! Ah Ah. My heart missed a beat. I thought they'd come out at midnight or something then. I'm wanting to get in there this year. Maybe tomorrow eh?
-
