simon Posted December 13, 2004 Share Posted December 13, 2004 One of the issues would be that different conditions may apply. For example - it may very well be that single tickets can be refunded and changed. Some airlines (etc) don't get too fussed about people not using the return section. Others consider it breach of contract. Some demand repayment. Some will cancel or deduct frequent flyer points. BA were okay when we did this once. But we did call them to say that an issue had arisen and that we wouldn't be able to make the return flight. And Slim is right. The airlines will frequently over book popular flights. Since there are always people who don't turn up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hugs Posted December 13, 2004 Share Posted December 13, 2004 Manxflights.com searches all airlines on your chosen route and shows them all. Can be very scary to see the differences. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joeyconcrete Posted December 13, 2004 Share Posted December 13, 2004 It doesnt search all airlines. When I was going to Dublin it didn't consider Aer Aeran (sp?) for instance... (Which were cheaper than Euromanx) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simon Posted December 13, 2004 Share Posted December 13, 2004 Aer Arann seem to be hugely cheaper than Euro Manx on the Dublin route. Book online or deal with them direct. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
