Cheapest I have found is about £49
Also seen prices around £1097 on Monarch in August

Is that helpful ? (I doubt it ! :cry: )

I booked my flight yesterday but changed times to get it cheaper..
From Stansted to Faro (flying on a tues afternoon) it was just over £ 42 with Easyjet...
the return flight from Faro to Stansted (on a sat.eve) was about £63 (can't remember exact price)..
so with tax altogether it was £131 return trip.
Im not sure if that helps either :)

Thomson fly from Coventry at that time Fridays and other days.

Have found BMI Baby cheap just recently. They have just started a new service from BHX to Faro in March of this year. Came back with them on 29th March (Thursday) for 120 euros inc taxes etc for 3 of us!!! Pretty good I think. It was also quite cheap in the school holidays when I checked in Feb.

a couple of years ago friends of ours hired a villa in Greece and then couldn't get cheap flights, so they booked the cheapest self catering holiday they could fine just for the flights. Don't know if it would work to Faro but it may be worth a go. Liz

Ive got a pic of Nora Batty & her Wally out of 'Summer Wine'..in their Motorcycle comb!

Speaking of which, an old schoolfriend of mine's parents went everywhere in their motorcycle comb......travelled europe etc. On one trip it became 'unbuckled' (or wotever :? )..her Dad went one way and her Mum another! :shock:
luckily her mum in sidecar had a soft landing, so no harm done :)
