Post by: Gorgeous_bird on August 11, 2009, 20:41:06 PM: Have I got it right - the flights have gone down overnight so the prices will go up again?

Post by: june on August 11, 2009, 21:26:03 PM: Don't understand??, am I being daft?...what do you mean Lance...they have gone bust?
Title: Airflights
Post by: Scunner on August 11, 2009, 21:29:50 PM: They're only a ticket provider Lance, shouldn't have any bearing on flight prices whatsoever. They offered flights at the same price as you could buy yourself anyway. No mention of them going bust in the travel news sites anyway :)

Post by: chrissy452 on September 01, 2009, 11:46:09 AM: Have just been looking at October flights, and Airflights still advertising! Does anyone know if Flightline are still OK?
Title: Airflights
Post by: julesbob0303 on September 01, 2009, 13:12:07 PM: Airflights contacted me a week ago cancelling my October flight, offered me an alternative airport, then contacted me again to say there were no seats left! A second choice was offered, and accepted! I hope there isn't a problem with them, after all that!! :o :-\ :)

Post by: susuz.1 on September 01, 2009, 15:06:41 PM: I have telephoned Airflights.co.uk just now - they have informed me that they are certainly not in trouble and business is as usual. Any flights cancelled would be no fault of their own but purely at the direction of any flight operator and would therefore be out of their control.

Hope this puts peoples' minds at rest, especially those who have already booked tickets through airflights.co.uk (such as myself) :o

Post by: julesbob0303 on September 01, 2009, 15:22:46 PM: Thanks Susuz :) Our flights are with Onur Air, so that says it all, re the cancellations! Though to be fair, not too many problems on our recent trip. A slight delay both ways, but can't really complain. ;)

Post by: chrissy452 on September 02, 2009, 11:31:34 AM: I was asking about Flightline too, as they seem to be advertising British Midland flights from Glasgow in October. Am I just off the ball, but I have never noticed a British Midland flight to Dalaman from anywhere in the UK, let alone Scotland. I have checked BMI website, and they dont appear to fly from UK to Dalaman. Does anyone know any different?
Title: Airflights
Post by: Scunner on September 02, 2009, 11:37:18 AM: I've flown BMI Glasgow to Dalaman, and very good it was too. You are right, it isn't a listed service on their website.
Title: Airflights
Post by: SteveJ on September 02, 2009, 12:06:14 PM: Oh bu**er. I took out a BMI credit card a couple of year ago because you got 20,000 free air miles with it.I used the card once (to get the airmiles) paid it off in full and then cut it up. My intention was to use the airmiles for a couple of return flights to Dalaman so every now and again I would look on their web site to see if they had added Dalaman to their list of destinations but it never appeared. They recently introduced a scheme whereby you could exchange your airmiles for gifts and as I didn't go to anywhere else I cashed in 18,000 airmiles only last week. It now looks like I've exchanged two return tickets to Turkey for a picnic hamper. DOH!
Title: Airflights
Post by: susuz.1 on September 02, 2009, 13:50:02 PM: I think I may have the answer! I had to ring BMI to ask them a question. I'm flying out Gatwick to Dalaman flight booked via airflights.co.uk (return with Monarch).

I was told they don't operate scheduled flights from Gatwick to Dalaman but this would have been a chartered flight and to ring a different number.

I therefore suspect these are flights returned by customers who can't go for some reason or flights that have remained unsold so they've farmed out to agents.

My flight, airflights had on their website yesterday going out 11th Sept for 18 days LGW to Dalaman return £185 pp all in. Going out BMI flight coming back with Monarch.

Post by: littlereddevil on September 02, 2009, 14:49:33 PM: Does anyone know where I could book a oneway BMI flight from Dalaman to Glasgow please ? Flightline just seem to depart from Uk airports
Title: Airflights
Post by: Scunner on September 02, 2009, 14:56:13 PM: I wondered the same, the best I came up with was to phone Airflights as it is not possible on their or Flightline's websites.
Title: Airflights
Post by: littlereddevil on September 02, 2009, 16:03:01 PM: Ok I phoned Flightline and the lady said British Midland won't allow one-way flights from Dalaman only return departing in the Uk
