That’s why we’re providing you with some useful tips and tricks for saving money on your next holiday to London Southend Airport’s top destinations.
Book in advance
Booking your holiday in advance is a game-changer for smart travellers. Not only does it give you plenty of time to plan and get excited, but it also has the potential to save you a ton of money on flights and accommodation.
Take Amsterdam, for example – if you book your flights ahead of time, you can get some serious savings. You can use the money you save to explore the city’s iconic restaurants, museums or for renting a bike to ride through the beautiful Vondelpark. Don’t wait until the last minute to book your holiday. Get ahead of the game and pocket some serious savings!
Be flexible
Give your travel dates a little flexibility! By travelling during off-peak periods like weekdays or shoulder season, you can score some amazing deals on flights and accommodation. For instance, if you’re planning a trip to Malaga, flying midweek could save you up to £100 per person. Imagine all the mouth-watering meals and more you could indulge in with those extra savings!
Travel light
One of the easiest ways to save money on your holiday is to travel light. Many airlines charge extra fees for checked baggage, so try to pack everything you need in a carry-on bag. Not only will this save you money, but it will also make travelling more convenient and hassle-free!
Take advantage of free activities
When you arrive at your destination, be sure to take advantage of free activities and attractions. For instance, in Faro, Portugal, you can spend the day at one of the many stunning beaches or take a stroll through the historic old town. In Amsterdam, you can visit the buildings along the canal or take a bike ride through the city’s beautiful parks. Many walking tours, museums and other activities are free across our destinations.
