flights back to uk/return

[bwatt99]

Wife and bub under 2yrs are looking to go back to uk for family wedding,never really booked flights from perth,wa before as always just came to oz to visit.

Can anyone tell me whats the best places are to find cheap flights back to uk return,is there sales on right now with any airlines.

Is there best days,times to book i remember reading sometime ago about someone who wrote ways of saving on the cost of the flight certain days was cheaper,the no school holidays,time of year etc etc wish i still had this as could have played about with the days.

Is it better to book the flight from a australian site this end or can you and is it cheaper to book them from a uk site but then is this possible as how can they send you the tickets.

Would be great to find the best price for my wife or know how best to look,thanks in advance.

Use skyscanner - you can then play around until you get something that suits - or setup price change alerts which e-mail you daily and movement in price.

If you begin your journey in Aus you will pay Aus fares even if bought in UK. Cheapest is to buy returns from Uk but singles to get you to UK to buy the return are expensive. Just have to keep your eyes open and join the frequent flyer program of your chosen airline and maybe get a credit card attached to that program so next time you have something in the bank.

anyone recommend a good place to book,was looking at bravofly and they have very bad feedback,then looked at travel.com.au again they dont seem to have great feedback also,anyone recommend who to use,im looking for places like above which are in par with costs as there are some sites out there who charge way more than others and,its sort of put me off reading the reviews on some places.

I use skyscanner, kayak etc to get an idea of prices/dates etc but always try to book direct with the airline. i'm probably wrong but I always think that getting a third party involved, makes it more complicated! We got some good deals on flights with Emirates/Qantas but the routing is a bit odd, hence the good price.
