I think you'll find there are quite a few !!!!!!
Thanks for the info Eileen. Really good flight prices on that xl.com website. All we need now is more houses and we could plan our visit next year, maybe March.Eileen2 wrote:Maria-g,
The cheapest flights to Corfu are to be found (most times!) at www.xl.com. We usually fly from Newcastle, but Glasgow if the price is right!
When checking a flight from Newcastle on XL type 'Tesco' into the special offers box to qualify for a £20 discount each.
We prefer to leave booking until the last minute. For return tickets we paid £66 in May, £51 in August and £76 in Sept, inclusive of all taxes.
So there ain't anything stopping you now.
How's the weather in March and is it a busy time for bookings?
Hi Maria-g,
Apart from a few special charters flying direct to Corfu at Christmas and Easter there are no direct flights out of the main tourist season. To visit Corfu November-April entails flying to Athens then a short inexpensive flight to Corfu.
The flight situation of course has an effect on bookings, subsequently we plan our lettings around May-October.
Bearing in mind how far north Corfu is it is May before weather-wise things heat up. The plus side to that is the lush and verdant landscape.
