Hi there,
Need to book flights and I'm trying to decide which of these options is best. We'll be travelling with a 5yo and 18month old.
Option 1 - BA - leaves from H'row (not so good for us), direct to Chennai, leaves at lunchtime, gets in 4am local time. Return flights leaves at 5:30am (so hideous check-in time) and gets in at 11:40am.
Option 2 - Emirates - leaves from Gatwick (easier for us); change at Dubai (have about 2 and a half hours changeover). Flight times:
Gatwick 2:15pm - Dubai - midnight; Leave Dubai 2:30am; arr Chennai 8:05. On return leave 9:40am; arrive Dubai at 12:30. Leave at 14:45 and arrive Gatwick 18:25.
Can't decide if it is better to go from H'ow and direct (but horrible arrival and departure times at Chennai end)... or from Gatwick with a changeover.
Costs are comparable...
HELP!
thanks,
