TravelSupermarket’s 2024 Pulse Report shows that the five most commonly booked departure dates last year were during the autumn period when holidays and air fares are typically cheaper.
The summer school holiday period, though, remains the most sought-after window, with the last week of the holidays – 24-30 August – currently offering the best value for summer breaks, according to the price comparison site.
Over the past two years, Brussels has held the crown for the cheapest city break at £293.35pp for a three-night stay, while Florida has proved the best-value long-haul destination, with a seven-night stay coming in at just over £1,000pp.
