Nowadays, it's simpler to get dirt cheap airline tickets for flights inside continents more than above the Atlantic or the pacific oceans. Anyway, some airlines offer transcontinental flights with pretty cheap prices.
There is a bunch of companies that fly from one continent to another with bargain prices, in my opinion the best 8 are:
Aer Lingus: the airline that has its headquarters in Dublin offers flights from Dublin to Washington Dulles every two days at a price that goes from 229 dollars to 359 dollars depending on the day you choose for your flight.
Canadian Affair links the United Kingdom with Canada, the English cities connected are London Gatwick - London Heathrow - Edinburgh - Manchester - Birmingham - Glasgow - Newcastle - Exeter - Belfast. The Canadian cities are: Montreal - Ottawa - Toronto - Halifax - Edmonton - Calgary - Vancouver and Fredericton. Very dirt cheap tickets here, i found an offer for 97 pounds, taxes excluded, from London to Toronto. A last minute flight can cost less. If you b with a little more anticipation you can save also, but maybe a little less.
Condor has its base in Germany and links most of the European capitals to the following cities: Halifax - Las Vegas - Orlando - Anchorage - Whitehorse and Fairbanks. In the company's site, that is a very nice one you can find some good prices. Like almost for every other company prices vary greatly depending on many factors, like day of flight and time of booking, but for the majority of the flights by this company some good bargains can be made.
Flyglobespan connects the principal English cities with some Canadian city and Orlando in Florida and pretty dirt cheap airline tickets can be purchased from this London based airline company.
Flythomascook's only destination in the Usa is Orlando. This English company offe
Icelandair links London Heathrow with Boston, New York, Minneapolis, Toronto and Halifax. The price for a single one way ticket 359 pounds t/incl.
Thomsonfly leads you to Montego Bay from London for 103 pounds one way including taxes.
Zoom airlines flies, among others, London, Rome, Paris, New York, Montreal. This company permits you to book a flight 14 days before departure for a price of 219 pounds per person, taxes included, economy class.
In the near future we will see more companies entering the arena of transcontinental low fare tickets but for now i think these are the best ones. Clearly you'll have to check by yourself the sites of these, and other, companies to stay up-to-date of the latest offers, consider this list as start for your hunt for dirt cheap airline tickets.

Have Delayed Or Flight Cancellation Affected You?
If so you are in a large majority, you would be extremely hard pushed to find someone who hasn't been affected by delays or canceled flights at one time or another. Of course not all flight cancellations or delays can be avoided as some are out of human hands.
Some delays or cancellations can be down to sheer bad luck when it comes to Mother Nature. Bad weather is a huge problem where flights are concerned and for safety reasons flights are either delayed until it clears or cancelled for another time. Traffic control errors or problems can also be a factor when flights are either cancelled or delayed. Mechanical repairs or problems could also be another cause. The majority of good airlines will do everything they can to find you another flight either with another airline or with them at a later date. There should be no other charges for this if the delay or the cancellation is out of your hands. If you find your own flight on a different airline your old airline may pay any fees but they are not at liberty to do so.
Every airline will have its own special policies when passengers are delayed. Some people think that airlines have to provide meals, shelter or phone calls but in actual fact they don't have to do any of these things. Some airlines have different rules and regulations regarding cancellations and delays so it is always best to check them before you travel anywhere.
For the majority of airlines that operate in and around the United States, they will have different treatment for different fare types. Many airlines actually book more people onto their flights than there are seats; this is in the event of any no shows for that particular flight. If there are no 'no shows' then you may be the unfortunate one to get taken off the flight you booked for. To help avoid this, arrive at check in as early as possible. The Department of Transportation has a requirement for the airlines to have to ask people to give up their booked seats on a voluntary basis. This will be in return for some such compensation. Your compensation may be free travel, lodgings, money etc.
You are protected by Federal rules if you are the chosen on so to speak! The airline has to give you a specially written statement that states all of your rights as a traveler. If your booked airline cannot make sure you get to your actual destination within at least one hour of your original destination arrival time, you might just be able to get an on the spot payment for your troubles.
When you are reserving flights or booking hotel rooms always look at the terms and conditions in case you have to cancel or reschedule. This is very important information so be sure to print it out. Always read the conditions of carriage section that is on every airlines website as this holds some very important information.

How To Get To Your Resort From Tampa Airport
Tampa International Airport is Florida's third largest airport, handling more than 19 million passengers in 2007 which is an increase of 1.5% over 2006. It is located 10km west of the central business district of Tampa in Hillsborough County with Highway 60 passing the airport entrance just east of the start of the Courtney Campbell Causeway and just south of the end of Veterans Expressway. The airport entrance is well signposted and is west of Westshore Boulevard, accessed via the I-275 exit 39 or via Spruce Street or Columbus Drive westbound from Tampa.
The terminal at Tampa International Airport was the first of its type in the world with four air-side satellites connected to the main building via an automated people mover (APM). The terminal was originally designed to limit the walking distance between the car and aeroplane to 700 feet, but this has now increased to about 1,000 feet because of the new larger air-side buildings.
When you arrive at Tampa Airport you can either hire a car from one of the car rental agencies based n the terminal building, or you can arrange transport into the city at one of the Interactive Ground Transportation information kiosks in the baggage claim area near the escalators. There are shared passenger van services as well as several city buses that travel into Tampa and other destinations.
A taxi service is provided from the Commercial Ground Transportation Quadrants located in all four corners of the Baggage Claim Level. Yellow Cab and United Cab Taxis can be found at the kerbside outside the baggage claim areas. They both charge the same fares: $2 plus $2 per mile.
Passenger pickups can be found in the bus spaces in the Ground Transportation Quadrants. HARTline Rapid Transit is located at the East end of the Red Baggage Claim Curbside by Belt #20, and the route map and schedule is located at the bus stop.
There is no a railway station at Tampa Airport, but there is an Amtrak Station in downtown Tampa on 601 Nebraska Avenue which can be reached either by taxi or the Hartline rapid transit bus. The station and ticket office opens every day from 08.15 to 17.15.
The baggage reclaim area is split into the red and blue sections. If you are heading for the red area but need to be in the blue area you have to go to level 2 and walk across the lobby area where you can take the stairs (or elevator) down to level 1.
You can drop passengers off at the entrance to the terminal building, but do not park or leave your vehicle there as it will be towed away. Both short and long-term parking is available adjacent to the airport terminal. There is also a remote economy car park linked by a shuttle bus and valet parking is also available in the short-term garage.
When you enter the terminal building you will notice that the check in/ticketing area is also split into two sections red on the north side and blue on the south side. There is a good choice of places to get something to eat and drink at the airport both before and after security. There is also a great range of shops at Tampa Airport in both the public areas and passenger zones. Tampa Airport has a bank, ATMs and bureaux de change. The business centre at the airport offers Internet access, fax and photocopy facilities and the Airport Marriott is located in the terminal with its own business centre and conference rooms.
