MAN to JFK booking help
HI all,
I'm looking into flights from Manchester to New york around 29/12/08 returning 05/01/09. When i put the details in on the BA website, all the flights go via london. Am i doing something wrong?
Thanks in advance
Kev

the direct BA service from man-jfk ends at the end of october .....sorry.. if you want to fly BA you'll have to go via lhr or lgw .
ps watch that you don't have your shuttle arriving at lgw and the jfk flight departing from lhr or vice-versa

thanks for the promt replies.
Ive just looked at AA and it appears they dont fly MAN to JFK either although i am not sure if they ever did.
What options for are recommended for Manchester to New York flying basic class?
I am not sure if I can face the drive to London on the way back or the extra time involved in flying upto Manchester
Thanks for the heads up on the airport changes, ill keep an eye out.

Trust me - The Continental flight meets the basic requirement
It was always the cheapest MAN-NYC (EWR) flight. Very old 757-200 with drop down tv screens every 3 or 4 rows.
I wonder if BA dropping the route is connected to the AA (who fly to ORD from MAN) connection ?

Oh God, we have those flying ARN-EWR. They do, however, have standard power ports in the first quarter of economy, and you get very generous legroom on in row 7 and the right side of row 8. Incidentally, my sig came from one of these...
