- Latest Deals reveals the best bargain friendly holiday destinations, from Milan to Palma
Many of us are gearing up for the summer holidays now that the end of June is in sight and the weather is getting warmer every day. However, with multiple airlines cancelling flights, the thought of booking a trip abroad may be somewhat worrying for travellers.
Tom Church, Co-Founder of LatestDeals.co.uk, said: ‘With so much travel uncertainty for those of us wanting to jet off on a getaway in the next few months, it makes sense to find some bargain options - so that, in the event that your travel does get cancelled, you’ve not got too much cash on the line.
‘It’s proving pretty difficult to book flights in August right now which are budget-friendly, but the good news is that there are loads of flights available which are £30 or less in July, with plenty clocking in at just £20 for a round trip - that’s £10 each way!
‘If you can get some time off work or book the kids in for a holiday abroad as the summer holidays begin, here are some of my top choices - and these flights will leave you enough money spare to have a great time on your trip.’
