1-800 Fly Europe

Has anyone ever used them for flights from the US to the UK and if so how was your experience. Thank you.

This company is one of a number of "consolidators" who buy discounted seats from the airlines and then resell them. There should not be any problem if the flight is on a major carrier and you pay with a credit card. You will be given a confirmation number and you can go the airline's website to confirm that the seats have been booked. If there is any problem you simply contact the credit card company to have the charge reversed.

Hi K,

I have used them, but not to go to the UK.

They are reliable.

They are associated with AutoEurope.

I have used them often. They are totally reliable and you can often save a bundle.

I just booked my tickets for Dulles to Paris in May. Got them for $732, which was $100 more than on USairways out of Philadelphia (2.2 hour drive from my house), so I think I did well. Got Air France. The web site didn't specify the airline, but in checking the flight times, Air France was the only one with the same times.
