To tie up with my award booking, I need to get my (over 18) children from Chicago to Scotland return, in April 2017.
I've got Qantas points but the award availability is only on BA and the fees are too much. Looks like its between Iceland Air or Aer Lingus both coming in at around AU$1100.00
Thinking maybe Aer Lingus and doing a stopover in Dublin (I think chances of seeing Northern Lights in April are minimal). I could get a cheap flight to Dublin with them and return to UK for my next flight whilst they head on to Chicago.
Are both these airlines ok? Should I book now or wait for better prices? I never say never again with airlines but I make an exception for Ryanair.
Any opinions welcome.
