In our experience you normally get sales after Easter and then normally in August for the september slump.

However always worth trying expedia.co.uk and airline network as they always seem to have some sort of offer on.

We have also not been able to book for various reasons and the last Virign Atlantic sale finished last Tuesday. But looking at the past few months I am sure another offer will be about in a couple of weeks :)

You should also try www.opodo.co.uk It's a bit like expedia but can come up with some really good options.

thanks for the info,as for expiedia,travolocity and opodo and ther like.Have used them many times but the problem with them is you are only alowed to book up to 9 max then you have to phone for 10.At moment on web we can get BMI for 4 at £460 each phone then it go`s up to £900each for 10

Have you tried a travel agents? Thomas Cook have beaten web prices for us in the past.
I`ve emailed Expedia in the past about their prices and they do say they are only allocated a certain amount of seats from an airline, at a good price - then of course the prices go up!
