I am planning to go to New York in about March/April

About 2 days ago i went on British Airways and i got a Return for like £600, i then went on it today and its now £880!

At the moment its about £1000 for the flights and hotel alone, adding tourism/food and shopping will cost me £2000 just for 3days/2nights.

If anyone can find me some prices to JFK NY, thank you.

Why is it so damn expensive anyway?

Haha. To be fair, I think it was Wyetry that showed me that site to begin with, so you should be wanting her babies :p.
