Try Kayak.com it shows airfare to London via Northwest airlines for 819.00 for April. I'm hoping prices will come down over the next month

Most European sites offer a cheaper service than those from the USA (it's opodo.com/opodo.de/opodo.fr/opodo.co.uk ....)

I had a thread about that a long time ago ...

Well, I don't re-find it. Might be, I didn't start a thread, but it was related to some newpaper reports about that within another discussion.

Aren't bargain hunters those people who make all that racket at night when the workers are trying to rest.

I hope this link works for you. http://www.aa.com/apps/netSAAver/ViewNetSAAverFareSalesDetail.jhtml?saleId=1701&fileName=Core.Europe.Fare.Sale.10.05.06.xml&repositoryName=FareToolSpecialContentRepository

This is American Airlines. Listed fairs are round trip.

My trip is on indefinite hold. I hope to get things ironed out before too long, though.
