Ahhh, but is that 18.30 in our time zone, or in their worldwide search for a venue might it be 18.30 in some other time zone!

The one day package from Ulster Sports Travel is a complete rip-off at £265! No thanks!

Bizarre.
The package with one overnight stay is only £210.

One day package would work out about £100 cheaper overall then

That's probably not too far off the mark

It's UK, so no hospital bills - £100 may do it.

Judging by the current price level on the London routes, all things considered, it could end up not looking too bad.
Although how the overnight stay is cheaper, I have no idea.

Presumably the flights back late on Saturday night are silly money.

Booked flights today to Luton flying Friday morning and back Sunday night for £85. Looks like we'll just have to make a weekend of it!

Booked a flight Friday to Mon £ 75 . Worth the punt I think.

Overnight options are on scheduled flights. Day trip is a charter - hence the difference.
