Cheap flights on beach holidays

an image

We might not have our logo slapped on the side of a plane, but you know what we do have? Enough flight options to make your head spin (in a good way). Think a bunch of different airlines instead of just one, and loads of flight times so you can pick ‘n’ mix what works for you. Book a holiday with Jet2 and you’ve got a choice of flying with Jet2, Jet2, or - you guessed it - Jet2. The same goes for easyJet. Or, you could bag a deal with us and fly with whoever you want. Yep, including Jet2 and easyJet if that’s what you’re into. Or TUI. Or SunExpress. Or Whizz Air. Or Pegasus. The list goes on...

Holidays with cheap flights to Portugal

The Algarve is one of those destinations that punches miles above its price tag. Golden cliffs, hidden coves, seafood restaurants where the fish was swimming about three hours ago, and some of the best golf courses in Europe if that's your thing. Flights from the UK land in Faro in under three hours, and from there you're a short transfer to Albufeira's buzzing old town, Vilamoura's marina scene, or the laid-back charm of Lagos. Portugal is also one of the best-value countries in western Europe, so your money goes further on food, drinks and day trips than it would in Spain or France.

People also asked...

How do I find the cheapest flights?

The single biggest thing you can do is be flexible. If you can shift your dates by even a day or two either side, you'll often find a significant difference in price.

When you search on On the Beach, tick the "flexible dates" box and we'll show you the cheapest options across a range of days. Beyond that, booking early is your friend.

Three to six months ahead usually gets you the best pick of airlines and flight times, especially if you're tied to school holidays.

And because we compare flights across multiple airlines (not just one), you're seeing the full picture rather than being locked into whoever's got their logo on the plane.

What's the cheapest day to fly?

According to 2026 data from Expedia and the Airlines Reporting Corporation, Friday is actually the cheapest day to fly internationally (roughly 8% cheaper than Sunday, which is the most expensive.

For shorter European hops, midweek flights (Tuesday to Thursday) tend to be cheaper than weekend departures, simply because fewer people want to burn a weekday on travel.

The data also showed that August) yes, August. Is the cheapest month for international flights on average, largely because there's more supply in the air.

So peak season doesn't automatically mean peak prices if you're booking smart.

Should I book flights and hotel separately or as a package?

Nine times out of ten, a package holiday works out cheaper than booking everything separately, and it comes with a massive bonus: ATOL protection (or ABTA protection if you're one of our gorgeous Irish customers).

That means if anything goes wrong (airline goes bust, hotel can't honour your booking) you're covered. When you book with On the Beach, your money sits in a secure trust account until you travel, so it's not going anywhere. You also get our holiday perks thrown in: free airport lounge access on five-star bookings, fast-track security on four-star, and complimentary mobile data on three-star. Try getting that from a flight-only booking.

What are the cheapest short-haul beach holiday destinations?

If you want maximum sun for minimum spend, these are the destinations where your money goes furthest on a short flight from the UK & Ireland:

Turkey is the undisputed champion (particularly the Dalaman and Antalya coasts. Five-star all-inclusive resorts with waterparks and unlimited food and drink at prices that barely buy you half-board elsewhere. Bulgaria is another brilliant budget pick with Sunny Beach offering some of the cheapest package deals in Europe. Spain's Costa Brava and Costa de la Luz are cheaper than the better-known Costa del Sol, while Corfu and Crete give you Greek island magic without the Santorini price tag. And don't sleep on Morocco) it's only a three-and-a-half-hour flight and feels like a completely different world.

What are the cheapest long-haul beach holiday destinations?

Going further afield doesn't have to mean a bigger bill. Egypt (particularly Sharm el Sheikh) offers incredible all-inclusive value with year-round sunshine and world-class diving, and flights are only around five hours. Cape Verde is another brilliant shout with reliable warmth even in winter and surprisingly affordable packages. For the Caribbean, the Dominican Republic consistently comes in as the cheapest option: think palm-fringed beaches and all-inclusive resorts where drinks are included from morning to night. Mexico (especially Cancun) and Tunisia round out the best-value long-haul picks.
