     Cameron Flights http://www.cameron-flights.co.uk we managed to go up last year after many failed attempts because of the weather. Great experience though.

    i've always wanted to do this with the mrs, but damn is that expensive. That midweek 170 quid deal looks tempting though

    It is expensive if you want the cabin to yourself.

    Only thing ot be careful of really is the weather.  I know someone who has had flights cancelled due to the weather on SEVEN attempts.  After 2 years, they are still waiting for the flight!
