One of the definite
upsides to living and working in the UK, is the availability
and variety of cheap flights and holiday packages throughout the Northern
Hemisphere.
As a general rule, traveling to destinations outside of their peak
holiday months will be
cheaper. This isn't necessarily a bad thing either - think of
the crowds you'll miss, and
you tend to get accomodation for a cheaper rate as well.
TNT
and Southern Cross are a good place to check for package deals, but
don't forget to also
check out the cheaper airlines such as Ryannair, EasyJet, and Go to
name but a few. These
airlines tend to advertise on billboards at underground tube stations
dotted around London, so have
your notebook handy.
www.Lastminute.com is a great way to pick up holiday deals too
- just be prepared to live up to the
site name and go at the last minute and you could be winging your
way to Italy for a fraction of the
price!
Holiday
Deals are limited to Europe either - some great out of season offers
occur to the States,
particularly Florida, as well as countries such as Turkey, Egypt,
Tunisia and the Canary Islands -
so keep your eyes peeled.
