When and where should I be looking for a good fare to London, UK from Midwest USA for mid May? BA has a great deal on now through end April, but that is too early for me.<BR>Do I have to check many sites on a daily basis or is there an easier way? Thanks

Sue- This is a perennial question that, I think, has no definitive answer. Here are some suggestions:<BR>side step (www.sidestep.com) is a program that's been mentioned here that you can download. Then when you're searching prices on any website (ie. Travelocity, Orbitz etc.) it will supposedly give you a &quot;side step&quot; box with any cheaper fares than the ones you're being shown. I've not tried it.<BR><BR>www.travelhub.com has been mentioned here as having great prices. I just checked them for fares from Chicago to LHR May 15-May 30 &amp; it showed a price of $512 from a &quot;major Canadian airline&quot;. Don't know if that means you have to &quot;commit&quot; before knowing the exact airline &amp; route but it's worth a try. (FYI-then went to Air canada website &amp; couldn't find anything close?)<BR><BR>Air India consistently has the lowest fares from NY to London so that's worth trying.<BR>Hope this helps. Good luck!

I think it was between 7:00 and 7:10 this morning. Sorry you missed it.<BR>

I booked a few weeks ago through travelhub: Cleveland to London Gatwick via Pittsburgh. My fare was $414 + taxes - about $530 in total. I am flying in early June and returning late August. I have found travelhubs fares are usually good.<BR>If it says major American airline, you can easily find out which one it is by checking the flight numbers and times. To do this, continue as if you wish to complete a booking but do not actually complete it. Major Canadian airline almost always means Air Canada. The pale blue fares on travelhub are US Air.<BR>Also, look at where you have to change planes to work out which airline it is. Detroit = North West, Charlotte / Pittsburgh / Phil. = US Air, Chicago + usually American, Newark - often Continental.<BR>Hope this helps a little. If you find a good fare, I would book a.s.a.p.

I tried to get onto the sidestep site but it is blank - will try another time again.<BR>Also on travelhub can one accrew miles on the airline used?

Yes, you can accrew miles with travelhub. When you book, there is a place to enter your frequent flyer number, but it is best to also mention that you are a frequent flyer at check in as you usually would.
