We are flying into Heathrow end of September and wanting to fly immediately to Edinburgh for the first leg of our British holiday. I have been looking at BA and BMI flights and wish I would have booked a few days ago when flights were much more reasonable...c'est la vie.

I started to think that maybe, since we also need hotel accomodations for the 2-3 nights we will be spending there, that I might look into a package deal that includes the flight and hotel. Any ideas of where I should look?

Don't know about packages or flights but I just booked a train from London to Edinburgh round trip for 2 people in October for 72.00GBP or $115.00 for the both of us. If interested go to

Have a great trip

Maybe this article from The (London) Times of August 3 will help while you are there.

I am also interested in package deals as I am contemplating Edinburgh (for the right deal)...just keeping this post up-to-date so it has visibility on this board. Any info?

Also, do you think for a one week trip split between Edinburgh and London, that Ediburgh warrants a 2 or 3 night stay?
