Default Flights to Los Angeles from UK

Does anyone have any tips on getting cheap flights to Los Angeles from the
UK.

I need to travel on 26th June and return on 10th July.

The current prices are around the £450 mark - will this drop or are prices
fairly stable for this travel period?


Many thanks
John Scale

Fares seem to be very high this year. A July trip LHR-JFK priced on AA
has been hovering just over GBP 500 for 2 months now.

They are unlikely to drop. The last few days in June are very popular -
already the last 2 dates are almost completely sold out on many routes -
so even the 26th may get too busy soon.

Have you checked routes going via Europe? Where are you wanting to fly
from.


Isn't the UK in Europe? I think he shouldn't expect much of a drop from
450 GBP for a normal ticket for that time of the year. However, he
might do better from a consolidator or bucket shop.

No - we are an Island off the coast of Europe :-)

Ah, but surely the UK was once physically part of Europe. It is only
in very recent times - Geologically speaking - that Britain has been
an island!!!!

Given another Ice Age causing sea levels to drop it would probably be
part of Europe again.
