Not wanting to state the obvious but you have left it very late. I was booking this week to go to the UK and the prices are crazy.

The people that book flights at short notice pay for the costs of the discounted flights that people who booked 6 months ago paid next to nothing for. You won't find any flights cheap at a days notice as that is where the airlines make the money.

Generally there is a high premium price to be paid for anything within 2 weeks of departure so anything over the next few days is going to be really expensive.

Yeah wait a while.

I've been to Amsterdam a good few times, once for a day only, something like arrive 6am, leave at like 10pm I think it was, about €90 flights.

A day in Amsterdam is enough for me.
