Travelling to UK

Postby FragnaticDeath » Thu Aug 05, 2010 1:27 pm

Since it will be my first time travelling to UK I know nothing about the airplane companies and ticket pricing. So can anyone pin point me to the right direction of which companies are good with the pricing to get from Larnaca to heathrow airport.

Thank you.

Thanks for the fast reply palio! Well I knew about cyprus airways but thought of checking some other like easy jet, I totally forgot about them. Some people also suggested me thomascook but I can't seem to figure out how to get a 1 way ticket from larnaca to heathrow.

I always use Easyjet, much cheaper than BA and CA, but you will find the following extras: credit card booking, hold baggage, all food and drink. Still works out cheaper by a long way in my experience. Aircraft are usually new and the cabin staff friendly, though will not be Greek speaking!

Try and get a one way from cy and on your return, go to airport and a much cheaper price to fly back to cy by waiting, usually approx 2 hours, it is a set price for doing this and is approx £100, of which this time of year is good, kids holiday etc.
Infact why not do it in cy!! wait a little for around 110 or 120 Euros, I do this and its the cheapest way.
Good luck and enjoy the uk

I thought Easyjet only did gatwick to larnaca (or was it Paphos).

Mate, just take Cyp Airways save a lot of grief. Easyjet is shite, Monarch just as bad and Thomascook are only chartered flights so you may not get a 1 way.

Why is easyjet 'shite'? Modern clean, planes, low prices, on-line booking, no need to check in, if no hold luggae.

They fly Larnaca - Gatwick OR Pafos - Bristol, Edinburgh, Manchester, Luton and Gatwick.

Reh Fraggy, don't listen to the Cheapskates above...

Fly with The National Carrier brother,

Fly The Mouflon in to LHR mate,

Fly on planes named after our Stolen Towns,

.... and LHR is on the Tube network... 40 mins in to central London.
