Wikimania 2007/London/Fares

This subpage to the London submission to hold Wikimania 2007 details some of the many flight options available.

This flight and fare information was retrieved, mostly using expedia.com on September 20 & 22, 2006.

Please note that:

All prices are in US$.
Flights are economy (coach) class, round trip
All taxes and airport fees are included
All prices are for booking now for flights in August 2007 and therefore are not indicative prices of flight costs in 2006 but are actual prices as will apply on the dates of Wikimania.
Although fares and flight information has been retrieved for the actual dates of Wikimania, not all carriers have published their timetables for that period yet, although they operate on that route. As such further flights and possibly cheaper prices may become available at a later date.
The same resource (expedia.com) has been used to retrieve the cheapest flight options for other candidate cities on the same basis as above and listed alongside the prices for flights to London and as an aid to the selection panel.

The research method and accuracy of this article is disputed.

Please see the relevant discussion on the talk page.
