1p Flights...

Well, I set out to blog about holiday destinations primarily and cheap flights and travel advice as a kind of secondary topic. Today, I bring you... flights for one penny!! Yes you read it right.
The flights are from Ryan Air and advertised as free, the fact is that you will pay one penny each way, and you could reclaim that penny, but it would cost money to do it...so...don't bother!
As you might expect, there are restrictions such as no stowed luggage, payment by Visa Electron and you must book by tomorrow - but you knew it wouldn't be easy, and as an ardent bargain hunter you won't be dissuaded by such trivial hurdles to overcome.
I was pointed in the direction of these bargains, by the money-master Martin Lewis at MoneysavingExpert.com - read the article here...

This is the short form of what is on offer according to Martin and his researchers:
