- TATL in economy to PHL with US - from DUB via LHR in Y (180 TPs) is around 600 euros but seems you need to come back on Monday 3rd Nov (maybe no good for you) to get that price.
- Nest Chris1979's LGA-LGB run (you'll need a positioning flight from PHL-LGA) currently available most of that week - 1070 USD/840eur/660GBP

Total TPs would be somewhere between 800-860, and should be doable for around 1500 euros/1200 GBP - so about £1.4 per TP

You can also take public transport from PHL to 30th st station, then Amtrak to NY Penn station and a taxi from there to LGA.
