Title: Easyjet 2011 Flights Out Now!!
Post by: Gillywoo on September 30, 2010, 01:52:21 PM
This morning Easyjet released their Summer 2011 flights and for Corfu there are some excellent prices to be had.

I have just booked for July 2011 and paid 296pounds for 2 return tickets including speedy boarding and luggage, if you are flexible on dates you can get even cheaper than that.

Book as soon as you can because prices are already rising, I could have got the above 10pounds cheaper 2 hours ago but didnt have credit card on me :'(

Word is out on the Agni Site so you can expect a rush of bookings and rising prices later today.

For those of us in the South, the Gatwick or Bristol flights are not showing yet for next Summer. I guess they'll come on to the Ejet site v.soon.

A bit unusual this year in that Ejet didn't put the summer months for 2011 in the drop-down bar for a week or so before they actually put the flights on, so has caught me out!

£254 Easyjet ex-Man in June. This includes 20kilo checked in luggage and speedy boarding. Not the best flight time but really pleased. Includes CCC too.

Just booked my flights paid £218 for June/July from Manchester two return flights, 1 bag (if you take one piece of baggage between you you can have up to 32kilo - wont put that much in but it means you can go over the 20kilo for two people and take a piece of hand luggage each).  I looked at the price this afternoon and it has gone up since then by £15 but as I was actually doing the booking just 10 minutes ago when I got to the end and I confirmed the price it had also gone up during the booking saying there were no seats left at the original price on the return journey - they had only gone up by £3 each but it just shows how quickly they are going up - so you better book quick.  We went to SS in June this year and really fell in love with the place so roll on June!!!! 8)

Great news, though i`ll be flying from Gatwick so mine aint out yet. We'll be getting one way tickets, cos we're quitting the UK, life's too short to be cold and wet when there's plenty of sun to be had elsewhere !

Your Choice - Must be First Choice - You get to fly out in a waterbed filled with Champagne - served by gold plated staff,
Lunch by Harrods Food Halls, (Lobster), all silver service waitressing and a free massage!!

Olympic is a flying swimmin pool with seats at an onboard poolbar, you can swim to Corfu and get a old Medal.

Thomsons give you nasty hard plastic backed seats that hurt your knees, and then they fly past chucking the food trays at you,

Easyjet, good value, but they often run out of food for the return flight, no film (who cares?), and nice seats (Thomsons please note)!!

Ryanair, don't go, but if they did, flight 50p, £5 to use the only toilet, standing room only - or seats at £60 each, Luggage charge £50, extra 5 kilos = £40, checking in £30, Coffee £10 a cup, Meal £45, Drinks £15 each - Etc.Etc. ........
Total price inc Taxes and all Robinairs extras - £850 for two!! Bargain!!

Checked this morning before work and Bristol flights were still not out. Checked when I got home and there they were!
I'm sure some folk got a better bargain than us (not allowed to access at work) but still much less than Thompsons from Exeter. Have taken the plunge and booked for May half term and two weeks in August again! Woo hoo!
Just out of interest, can anybody tell me what time they actually went live today?
I'm curious to know what their "best price" for 5-19 August was!
Looking forward already!
Helen

I see Bristol have the same awful departure time as Manchester. Wish they were early morning as I hate getting to San Stef at around midnight or later.

The times are definitely not great but even with Thompson's lunchtime flight this year, a dreadful transfer via every nook and cranny in Sidari meant we didn't get to San Stef until after 9.30pm!
Hoping for a quicker route with Noula next time and two Easyjet flights for the price of one Thompson flight clinched the deal!

Cornish Maid - they came online at about 5.00pm yday i think.
We're not visiting SS next year but got cheap flights to our 10-year summer haunt of Carvoeiro on The Algarve for next Sept and for a week's stay in June in Fueterventura. In fact the Fueterventura flights were only £75 return - wednesday to wednesday and good flight times.
The BTL-Corfu ejet flights are same times as this Summer - 6 in the evening - which aren't v.good, but as we stayed at Fedra Mare this June our private taxi transfer was v quick - we arrived at FM this June at 12.15am.

Times are a little bit of a drag but August prices are less than half the price of Thompson from Cardiff....

Does anyone know when the Easyjet Gatwick flights for next April are coming out ? I'm starting to get just a tad impatient !

Thanks for the tip about the Easyjets flights from Bristol.  I have just booked for the 10 of us to go on 22 July and the cost with a bag and the inevitable debit card fee was around £220 each, which is probably as cheap as we will get from a regional airport.  At least it is something to look forward to but the weather in Cornwall today was better than many days in summer and we were drinking outside until sundown.  Thanks again.

We paid £170 return in June this year from BTL - i think the flights for same period next June 2011 were showing about £130 when i looked yday.
Yours are prob dearer because of the school hols being close to your 22 July date.
Ejet flight times are rubbish again; hence, we're giving SS a miss in 2011.
