Advice on which airline to use from the UK

My friend has a villa near Coral Bay which we will stay in next year. Can anyone advise the best airport which run flights from the UK. Birmingham or East Midlands are our closest airports but we dont know the best airlines (ie easyjet) as all our recent trips have been long-haul accross the atalantic.

Hi





We are based in the East Midlands, and we fly out to Paphos regularly. We always fly from Manchester as the flights are cheaper and there are more options on which day you can travel. We normally use Easyjet (if you decide to do so book Speedy Boarding).





Try looking on www.skyscanner.net which checks the prices of all the major operators

We flew in September with Thompson fly. Airbus A321 out a brand new 737-800 back. We also booked the extra leg room seats and seats together, which was well worth the extra as the leg room in the normal seats looked a bit tight. On the way out they were just two seats side by side which was very nice. Travel out on a Sturday and back on a Wednesday gave us perfectly timed flights. Out from EMA at 1645 and back from Paphos at 1445.Price was about £375 each including all the extra and leg room. It was booked about 5 months in advance though. Both flights bang on time - in fact we got back to EMA 20 minutes early!!

We have travelled with a few different airline from Manchester and Newcastle to Paphos. Have found Cyprus Airways to be the best but not the cheapest as the flights tend to be scheduled. Another good one were British Midland (think they are now BMI). At Birmingham you will have similar if not better choice of airlines than from Manchester. Don%26#39;t think Cyprus Airways fly out of Birmingham though!

We have flown with numerous airlines and we like Cyprus Airways the best. May not be the cheapest but at the moment there are no %26quot;add -ons%26quot; meals%26amp;drinks included in the price and 20k of hold luggage + 5k cabin luggage as well. We fly from Manchester not sure where ekse they fly from. Hope you get sorted.

you need to keep manchester in the equation as often the best deals are from there. thomas cook and thomsonfly are the ones to use, if flying into paphos check the websites on a regular basis, they often alter weekly.



if going for thomsonfly book through first choice it%26#39;s cheaper.

Hi,





I%26#39;m travelling to Paphos in 2 days time from Manchester to stay with a relative near to Psathi village. I booked the flight only at the end of August for 2 people and the cheapest flight I found was with Thomas cook, we had to pay for hold luggage but in still came in £100 cheaper.Thomson ,Easy jet and Jet 2 were more expensive at the time of booking.

Hiya,





We fly from Manchester regular to Paphos with Easyjet.





We usually pay no more than £200 each for a return flight.





Easyjet offer flexibility of dates and tend to maximise scholl holidays %26amp; Bank Holidays stretching a two week break to 17 days at no extra cost by travelling on a Thursday and returning late Sunday night.





We tend to book months in advance, usually the day the flights are available.





Good luck





Stewart
