Got to disagree to say that there is no really ´low cost´flying left any more. Depends on what you mean by low cost. To my mind if you book well in advance and play the game so to speak - i.e. no bags, meals etc. there is still great value around. Just did a Gib-Luton return with Monarch for 78 pounds including all taxes and charges and no c/c fees (used debit). I would say that was pretty good value in anyone´s book and given an extra leg room seat on the inbound leg!
