Birmingham to Goa via Mumbai
I have browsed the internet for one-way tickets for 2 adults and 1 child to Goa from Birmingham, UK via Mumbai.
The best quote so far is Birmingham to Mumbai flying with Emirates £999 one-way and Mumbai to Goa £50 one-way with SpiceJet. Those prices are the totals for 3 persons. Anyone know of any better deals?  We are looking to fly on March 4th 2006.

Could you fly from Manchester or Gatwick ? It might open up a few more options.
Try http://www.odysseyholidays.com. Also remember that sometimes it is cheaper to book a return ticket than it is to go for a single. You do not have to use up the return uif you do not want to. |

Do you have to go via Mumbai? If not your best option would be to take a chartered flight from Gatwick or Manchester and forget about the return portion.

 You might miss Birmingham City FC getting relegated then this year. Its not too far to get to Manchester or Gatwick. You might save more than enough to cover the cost of travelling to Manchester or Gatwick if you make use of the charter flights that operate to Goa from these places (unless you need to go to Mumbai). Are there no charter flights to Goa from Birmingham ? I am sure I read somewhere that they were starting soon. |

Hopefully being a Villa fan
 Manchester might be an option! |

You could try Yemen Airways. They have a fare of £272 incl tax return to Bomay. They leave on saturdays and wenesdays from heathrow. A one-way may be a bit cheaper. The savings may pay for a train journey to Goa.
All the best, Pete |
