One leg looks good as a hand luggage free trip then the cost gets whacked up on the return leg and I'm looking to book in good time. While i love BA, theres no point paying 170 gbp return when Norwegian or Easyjet is consistently 70 or 80 gbp.
No quite the opposite, though i don't take hold luggage, the introduction of HBO resulted in a genuine (so far) £20 discount.
