In response to Marg's posting, I've just had a look at easyJet's site.
Today's price for two people, return trip for either 8 or 15 days, leaving Gatwick on June 9 and including two hold bags up to 20kg each, all taxes and travel insurance: £298 total for both people.

In contrast to what I said in my post on the Holiday Price Rises, this is a good price by Easyjet, yet having done the same input, it now stands at £308.82p (£154.41p each). Not a lot of difference I know, but this seems to be the norm, a fluctuation in prices whether it is to do with the number of seats available, or what. When they were first published, prices were up to nearly £400.
Yeiamas, Chris

In addition to the above, and using the same dates as Steve and Julie above, Easyjet are also flying out of Bristol to Corfu. Flight Only, flying out in June (example) costs £165.02p for two, yes, £82.51p each. How much that will change as seats are taken. EASYJET BOOKINGYeiamas, Chris

Still waiting for the prices to come down from Gatwick. Although they're a good price they're still double what we paid last year. Also don't know if we can commit to a holiday this year with the way things are with the economy Nikki

Looking at easyJet's site, flights from Manchester and Bristol start in May. Manchester flights start 4 May until 24 October. Bristol flights run from 22 May until 24 October. This is great news and the prices are looking good too, Manchester on the first flight day is just £33.99 out and just £31.99 in. That is without the charges for lugguage etc, but even so these new routes are fantastic news for Corfu and Roda. Remember that easyJet works on the earlybird system. My sister booked her easyJet flights out for August through Travelcare and said that she got an even better deal. I suppose we ought to work out when we will be travelling back and get booking! We did that last year and didn't regret it. Thumbs up for easyJet! ;D
