Joe public needing a cheap flight

Well i have searched and found £370 to florida for 1 week and 500 for 2 weeks flight only, not sure why it costs more to pickup the return flight 1 week later.

is it possible to travel stanby if i am not a member of staff.

A330ismylittlebaby,

Although I don't have the dates at hand I suppose that it has something to do with the demand for the return flights from the States. Yield management.

Now regarding the stand by for non staff, also I suppose that the price you found is for a r/t and a o/w is much more expenssive.

In both cases I might be wrong.
