Managed to book what must be the bargain seats of the year ;D 4 one-way seats at the end of October for £99 from local East Midlands airport

This was excel using the promotional code TESCO, which saved us £80
As these flights were so cheap we've booked 4 even though there will only be 2 of us travelling, which means we will benefit from 4 persons baggage allowance, saving £££££££££££££s on excess baggage 8)
Checked this out with Excel before we booked to ensure it was permissable, then discovered that we are actaully flying with BMI :

Emailed the airport yesterday to explain circumstances and have received confirmation, in writing, that we shouldn't encounter any problems and will just need to inform the check-in staff when we arrive at the airport.
I know flights aren't often this cheap, however, if you are wanting to take over and above the luggage allowance or like us are taking luggage for a more perminant stay as opposed to just a holiday this might be a good option to consider
