If you’re looking longingly at sun-kissed destinations – and at your bank balance, wondering how to make it stretch a bit further – Jet2holidays has got eight great tips on how to save money so you can book the summer holiday you deserve. Sangria and sun loungers, here we come…
Pick your perfect package
Start by working out how much you can realistically afford, and stick to browsing holidays that sit within your budget.
Choosing a package holiday with an ATOL and ABTA-protected tour operator, such as Jet2holidays, gives you more bang for your buck and means your money is protected.

With Jet2holidays, you also get accommodation, return flights and transfers, 22kg baggage and 10kg hand luggage included in your package, which reduces hassle and helps avoid hidden extra costs.

Travel when it’s quieter
Being savvy with the dates you fly can make a huge difference to your holiday’s price tag.
As well as saving hundreds of pounds, travelling outside the peak summer months means you can also enjoy your spot by the pool without having to resort to towel-draping tactics.
Sunny early/late summer spots that Jet2holidays flies to include the Costa del Sol, Majorca and the Algarve, which boast 300 days of sun per year.

Jet2holidays has a Jet2Villas collection, which has some stunning properties to choose from, such as the gorgeous Villa Mango on the Costa del Sol, which sleeps six. You’ll still get the perks of a package holiday too, with return flights, 22kg baggage and car hire included.

Be flexible with how long you go for
When we’ve chosen our holiday spot, most of us automatically look for a one or two-week stay, and flights that arrive at our destination in time to enjoy some sunshine. But being flexible with the length of your holiday could reap rewards.
Jet2holidays offers flexible durations, with many of its holidays giving you the option to go for as little as three days and as long as 55! For example, choosing a six-night break instead of a whole week away will often save you more than just the equivalent of a one-night stay.

smart saving
Go for the
best-value destinations

With so much choice available, maybe it’s time to consider somewhere different for your next holiday.

Plan your itinerary
in advance
It’s worth devoting a bit of time before you travel to researching things to do at your destination that are either cheap or free.
From visiting museums and enjoying a picnic at a local beauty spot to relaxing on the beach and hiring bikes to go exploring, if you plan some activities ahead of the trip, you could make some big savings.
