I need the cheapest flight to Malawi to help aids victims
Hi,
I am flying from the UK to Blantyre, Malawi in the first week in January to help my girlfriend with her charity work, and to take out clothes and toys for the orphan children she teaches and cares for. Where can I find the cheapest flight?! Many websites quote VERY cheap prices like around £350, although when I phone to book they say that either the flights don't exist, or that they are much much more expensive! Any help would be greatly appreciated, as I really want to book this week, so I can get on with collecting toys and clothes for the kids. Thanks, Paul |

What sort of price was available. Around the £750 - £850 was the price range I found availability in. - Lansbury www.uk-air.net FAQs for the alt.travel.uk.air newsgroup |

What sort of price was available. Around the £750 - £850 was the price range I found availability in. The cheapest I can find is £569.10. I suppose that's not too bad. |

That was not bad some time ago, I often paid £550 to go to Harare. With current fuel prices etc that is a good price in my book, especially if it is a half way decent airline. - Lansbury www.uk-air.net FAQs for the alt.travel.uk.air newsgroup |

I can see a fare of £320 plus taxes with Kenya Airways, but it only allows you to stay a week. - Lansbury www.uk-air.net FAQs for the alt.travel.uk.air newsgroup |

If you are referring to http://www.cheapflights.co.uk/flight...e/London-Area/ then it's a lie! After you actually phone the companies listed, the price is a lot more! thanks! |

It's a Kenya Airways consolidator fare, so any of the cut price people that deal with the airline should have it, if it isn't sold out on the dates you want. There would only be a limited number of seats at that fare on a flight, so first come etc. - Lansbury www.uk-air.net FAQs for the alt.travel.uk.air newsgroup |
