    Wondering what would be the cheapest way to get to london be with return for a two week visit? You hear about all these cheap flights, i just cant seem to find em!

    Secondly i am leaving to go to South east asia on the 23rd and got my shots today, the nurse says they only take 10days to come into effect but i did here else where 6 weeks been said, was the nurse 100% correct.

    Wondering if i was to travel by buses how long would it take to get from bangkok to da nang in veitnam and if i really should just fly internally, are flights easily/cheaply available internally????

    Does anyone know if usit are okay with changing flight arrangements, i have booked to fly home from australia from perth but want to change the airport to sydney now, is that possible? would i be charged alot for doing this?

    Wow!

    That's a few questions alright!

    WRT London and/or Europe for a two week break, I daresay I wouldn't stay in London for two weeks, maybe try somewhere in the south of England and travel about a bit? As for Europe anywhere is good. There are so many places you could go, but a lot of it depends on personal preferences and budget.

    Also a lot of getting cheap flights with Aer Lingus and/or Ryanair is flexibility. When they put special offers on, they're usually for a specified period, to particular destinations and only valid for a couple of days. Ryanair have a sale at the moment, for example which follows this template, as does AL. If you can travel when they want you to, you can generally save quite a bit.

    Also, when looking for flights, check the prices for a couple of days either side of your planned travel dates and you can usually get a slightly cheaper flight (though not always). As for booking at least 14 days in advance, that's always been the way all the way back to when airlines had "Super Apex" fares.

    If you are looking to travel somewhere tomorrow, you'll need to contact tour operators and/or airlines directly or go to the airport and take pot luck.

    For Bankok to Vietnam, I've no idea about how long it would take overland, but there are a few cheap airlines operating out of Bangkok. You would miss out on seeing a lot if you were to fly, however.

    USIT will amend your flights, but be prepared to pay a few quid. It's not like you're just amending the dates, you're amending your departure airport to the other side of the continent!!!!
