can i ask where you all look to buy your flights to FUE.  I use skyscanner, is that the best place to look? are there any others that you all use?

Skyscanner is probably the best, but then when you know the route you want then you find the airlines that fly that route.

The one problem I have found with flight comparison sites is that they take no account of all the extra charges (baggage, allocated seating etc) that the 'cheap' airlines charge. Last time I flew in to FUE was with BA and didn't cost me a penny more than the cheapies once I'd accounted for the fact I wanted to take a suitcase and have some refreshments on board. I use momondo.co.uk to find out what flights are available but always check the TOTAL price on each airline's website before I decide.

I agree about the extras, as a BA Exec Card holder I would usually chose them but not now, as if like us you live in the north, as there now are not even shuttles to Gatwick let alone direct flights to the Canaries from the North

The main gripe I have is finding what flights there are on what days  i.e. who flies to Fuerteventura  on a Monday for which airport so you can compare which airport to fly from, Manchester 88mls 1hr 30, Liverpool 94mls 1hr 37 and Leeds Bradford 71mls 1hr 50 (no motorway),  I know you can go to each airlines sight but its a pain to compare.

All airlines direct usually but also Travel Supermarket.
