Sky Scanner A very powerful flight checker, for cheap flights internationally.
MSE, Flight checker Superb budget airline flight checker, which builds tables of dates and prices, allowing you to find the cheapest deal in the quickest time.
Easyjet Refuse to be included in MSE checker. MSE will illustrate the cheapest dates and times overall, just put these into the easyjet site.
Hostelworld The cheapest accommodation, isn't asking a hotel for their cheapest room, but asking a hostel for their most expensive.
Laterooms Brilliant website for cheap, high quality accommodation. I don't use anyone else for UK hotels.
Expedia The legendary all-in-one travel shop. Cheapest deals are when flight and accommodation are booked together.
Trainline Shows timetables of train journeys, and shows every kind of available ticket. With the comical price of trains presently, this is an invaluable tool.
