I see just under 550 too. From Cardiff to JFK via Dublin. No difference from London though. So not seeing these fabulous savings I've been promised.

Now of course if you live in the sticks and you don't want to come to London then clearly its a better choice, but its no cheaper, which was everyone's original point, now disproved.

If I lived in London, I would quite happily pay more for the convenience of flying direct & being closer to home.
How about factoring in the cost of getting to London, possible overnight accomodation & Parking.
If I drove, Id be looking at £80 for Petrol, £6.50 for the Toll Bridge + Parking (£up to £10 a day?)
If I got a train, Id be looking at about £70 to get to Paddington & then whatever the fare is from there to Heathrow - prob about £5?
If theres two of you, then there is not much of a difference.
Factor in a possible 1 or 2 night stay in an airport hotel. - ive done a 12 hour flight from Vegas to Heathrow & then jumped in my car & drove home, was awake for about 30 hours from door to door & I wont be doing that again!

It is cheaper for me & imagine cheaper for Rivkid - as the post was directed for him & not you.

I would be interested to see how much it is to fly just the dublin / new york leg, as its possible you could make it cheaper again if you flew the uk-dublin leg with another budget airline.
