Best way to book direct from NYC to VCE direct?
UA and DL have direct flights. In Y UA charges 30K and DL charges 40K both have just $5.60 in fees. In J I was also looking but couldn’t find anything decent.

ETA: just checked DL in J is only 86k.

My favourite service is Skyscanner!! #1 for me
Not everybody agrees with me, for example, my friend from e[/url] prefers Google flights - a good tool to quickly compare flight dates, but not usually the best prices

Skyscanner and Google flights started doing awards! That's awesome, can he write me an essay about it?

I feel like it might be a bit tough getting content for such an article.

What's the best way to book PIT-LIR?
Not yet sure if it's worth the splurge for J over Y.

Price to beat is $458 in Y (which I can book with 27.5k MR or 30.5k UR).

As a one way? AC could piece that together. M&M too but you would have to call.

I thought AC too, should be fairly simple, it's a regular RT with an extra stopover.

Correct. See edit, missed the LON stopover in my op.

Can book BUD-LON revenue, and LON-NYC as an OJ if necessary.
