Save/ShareNot only has the buying power of the dollar in Britain jumped about 25 percent since last summer, but the cost of goods and services in London has gone dropped dramatically relative to other cities. "London has slipped below New York for the first time since 2002," according to a survey by The Economist.
The British government is teaming up with its tourist industry to blitz American airwaves with travel promotions shortly. So if you've been considering a trip to England this summer, hold off for a week or two to see what offers may be coming along from British Airways, Virgin Atlantic, and the Visit London website. Also check out the site British Tourism Week (which is next week) for trip inspiration.
If you're young and happily impatient, you can enter a contest for cheap London tickets that's being run by STA Travel—the largest youth and student travel agency in the world. Through tomorrow (Friday, March 20), you can win one of ten chances to get a $399 roundtrip-ticket (including taxes and fees) to London by calling 800/360-9273 or your local STA Travel branch.
Today's Real Deal:
This eight-night guided tour takes you from bustling London through the picturesque Lake District to Shakespeare country and Roman baths—plus a stop in Edinburgh, Scotland. Most meals, local transportation, and taxes are also included for $1,299.

Hi
Well, I travelled to london the last december for vacation and i did a wonderfull thing by booking my airport transfer with Hummingbird Cars http://www.airportransfers.net. I have tried them For London airport Transfer and they are pretty good and Affordable. They Provide Transfers from all the five London Airports: Gatwick, Luton, London City, Stansted and London Heathrow Airpots. They have very well behaved Drivers who respect their customers. They also provide a MEET and GREET Service. They have well maintained Saloon, Estate, People Carriers (MPV's) and large Public Carriers.
They also dont hike their prices anytime they have standard prices throughout the year. They also provide good discounts on bookings.
Highly Recommended
