How do I go about booking a flight to Malaga?
On the home page of the website, you will see a box to the left-hand side which is headed ‘Create a trip’ and this is where you need to begin your booking.
At the top of the box, you first of all need to select the relevant radio button for ‘flights’ – this should be the default setting when you enter the site. With the UK already showing as the country of departure, you then need to select your departure location from the drop-down list in the field headed ‘From’. In the ‘To’ box, begin to type in ‘Malaga’ and from the options which will come up, select the one which says ‘Malaga, Spain, AGP, Malaga’.
Clicking in the ‘Depart’ and ‘Return’ boxes will bring up a calendar from which you simply need to select the desired dates, and from here you just need to choose your flight class and ticket type and then indicate the number of passengers. Selecting the red button marked ‘Get flights’ will take you to the main results display screen.
The next page will show you two tables, one for outbound and one for inbound flights. Your requested departure and return dates will be highlighted in the centre of the boxes, along with the lowest price for that day. You will also be able to see the prices for three days on either side of the requested dates for comparative purposes. Simply select the radio button below your preferred dates and then ‘Continue’ at the bottom of the page.
On the following screen, the range of flights available on the selected dates will appear, along with the prices and the departure and arrival times. Make your selections using the buttons below the prices on the left-hand side, and then click ‘Continue’ once more.
As well as displaying your price quote, the following page will offer you the chance to upgrade your flights and increase your ticket flexibility. Once you have made any desired amendments, check the box at the foot of the screen to say that you agree to British Airways’ terms and conditions and then select the ‘Continue’ button below.
The next page allows you to add hotels, cars or sightseeing trips to your shopping basket and when you continue from here you will be asked to input the passenger details. Once these have been submitted, you can then carry on to make your secure online payment and confirm your booking.
Is the site packed with information?

Not only does the website provide you with all the information you need to make your booking, but if you hover over the pale blue tabs at the top of the home page, you will find a whole range of useful information on flights and holidays, online check-in facilities, what to do at the airport and what in-flight facilities you can expect.
