Never fly budget airlines. Pay the premium and just go on a normal
airline. In many cases it doesn't work out to be much more.



That may be an option if you live in SE England. But for the rest of us
it's not at all realistic. I live on Anglesey - getting to
Liverpool/Manchester for easyjet and Ryanair is tedious enough, going to
London so I could use the allegedly superior service of "normal" airlines
would be ridiculous.


Is Dublin or Cardiff not an option?


Cardiff is probably more difficult to get to than London (and a lot more
difficult than NW England). N-S transport links in Wales are very poor.

Dublin would require a ferry, and then probably a taxi or a couple of
buses - in theory it could work but in practice it wouldn't be pleasant or
cheap.

A twice-daily subsidised flight to Cardiff from Valley airport?

I didn't think of that one - I know people who've used it as well. I don't
think that I'll try it for connecting to other flights however - given that
separate tickets would be required the consequences the first flight in a
journey being delayed would be undesirable...
