Manchester -> Paris CDG
Great! Weekend in Paris beginning of September would be ideal... but hang on, for 2 people:
bmibaby (MAN) - £201.00
British Airways (MAN) - £172.20
British Airways (LCY) - £135.80
bmi mainline (LHR) - £121.20
bmibaby (EMA) - £101.00
bmibaby (CWL) - £101.00
So let's see... I can give up my complimentary meals and drinks, and my frequent flyer miles, and pay £80 more for the privelege of travelling on your "low-cost" airline compared with your mainline division from LHR. Even BA from MAN is cheaper and more choice of flights too.
What exactly warrants charging double the fare compared to baby flights from EMA and CWL?
