You are, I calculate you can post eligible claims from Friday, because they moved to Monday it does mean you can enter this one but only from Friday.

The interesting thing is even the dolls house challenge (where this rule came in) now says 6 weeks, it did say 4 weeks before so it must have been edited.

Its back to my very first post (post no 1 in this thread) for the best price as its changed again:

OPODO 459.50 x 2 = £991.00


Departing:Heathrow 13:15 Arriving:John F Kennedy Int'l 15:40 Air India
Connection:New York,Arriving: Orlando Int'l 22:41 Delta Air Lines

Departing:Orlando Int'l14:40 John F Kennedy Int'l 17:12 Delta Air Lines
Connection:John F Kennedy Int'l 20:10 Arriving: Heathrow (LHR), 07:55

Through Rpoints to Opedo for £12.50 cash back and £5 sign up gift if not already member.

Potential price now Memebr: £978.50 Non Member: £973.50£973.50

Now I can better this:

Book the flights direct for this:

Inadia airlines flight inc taxes: £571.40
Connecting flight with Delta inc taxes: £270
Total price for two people £841.40

But I can do better than this too:

Book Northwest airlines (with Thomas cook) through TravelSupermarket:
London to JFK £552.50 (2 x 276.25)
Total price for two people £822.50

Only problem i can see with this challenge is that the prices that have been posted have gone UP so unless the mod has checked when they have been posted then who knows.I have tried a couple and the prices are through the roof as you get nearer the departure.Only plus side could be that you pick up a last minute one on sunday night.

The ones I posted earlier are still correct and are the lowest so far but your correct they keep changing Its not vey good having a challenge on this kind of this where the price is not stable, the other big problem is your getting a quote so you can't provide links to the quotes as they are session based.

The Air India prices have now gone sky high.

Travel Supermarket (I did not leave link in my last reply): TRAVELSUPERMARKET show KLM now at 269.90 which would bring my price down still further but it not bookable when you go through to their site as the are changing prices right now (must be going up). However clicking through travelsupermarket to the Travel Care link, they are still taking bookings at £280 which is only £7.50 more than my best price yesterday.
