Title: returning to the UK at short notice
Post by: Lorraine on August 13, 2011, 13:01:04 PM
Could anyone advise on the best way of booking a flight to the UK at short notice, i'm sure that I have seen flights to the UK advertised in a window in Fethiye, but just cannot remember where(!). A friend may need to travel back to the UK as a relative is critically ill. I am well aware that flights at short notice can be extremely expensive, but knowing the expertise of forum members - thought it would well be worth a post on the forum. Many Thanks.

There is a place opposite the supermarket in Fethite (the one that back onto the council offices)

If you have a computer why not trey skyscanner. I had a qucick looj at Monday and the start at just over £100.

 This link might work for that search:

If it is a critical situation, Turkish Airlines fly every day so you can book the evening before and to be honest in a critical situation, the expense does not come into it.

I know it's a bit of a stretch to get there but there are regular flights from Antalya to Luton, Heathrow and Gatwick.
