I'm looking at going back to camp in New York next year. The company I go with either offer to pay flights and such or you pay them less and arrange your own. I'm looking at leave mid June next year returning September. Can anyone recommend where I could look at for cheap flights from UK to America :)
Thanks

    Travelocity, Orbitz, Cheaptickets.com, Cheapair, Hotwire, Priceline. I've learned recently flights are much cheaper the closser it comes to the date. Wyetry taught me that flights are much cheaper when you get alot closser to the date you are flying too. Much much cheaper I've found out!

    I got an email saying prices of tickets to the USA are going up about £20 to £30 next week cos some new fuel tax comes into effect

    There's certainly no shortage of cheap flights to New York though

    I didn't understand the original poster's comments about they pay / you pay.

    www.skyscanner.net is a really good flight comparison site. Check it out.

    sign up to the newletters of all the airlines who fly to where you want to go - often they have sales on at random times in the year.
    Also look at zoom - who do cheap flights to the states.

    icelandic air also do some cheap deals via iceland.

    US airlines are cheaper if you go through expedia etc - UK/european airlines are cheaper if you go direct to them.

    If you want to go really cheaply then you can always fly air india - who bizzarely have a flight to new york via london - however this is the flight of last resort.

    Ohh and if you leave it too close to when you want to travel the flights start going up again - so if your not booking in a sale then you need to aim to book around 3 months in advance.
