Flying low-cost 

The easiest way of getting a cheap flight to the Costa del Sol is by booking with one of the budget airlines that fly there. European low-cost carriers are very competitive and offer very reasonable prices so travelling to further away airports may not save you much money if any. However, budget airlines can offer such a low airfare because they do not include any additional products or services, such as baggage, meals or seat selection. When adding all of these to your itinerary it could push the price of your flight up, so be careful! Use the flight search tool now to see what is on offer. 

Weekday and out-of-season flights

Choosing to fly on a weekday may bring the cost of your ticket down. This may be because some people are restricted on when they can travel, so choose to fly during the weekends. If you aren't set on departing on a particular day it could save you to have a look at the prices of differing days, meaning more spending money for you! Additionally, Flying out of season may offer lower fares and cheaper deals as there is lower demand. The Costa del Sol is a family hotspot with a lot of families travelling during school holidays, particularly in summer. You could save money by travelling outside of these periods when there is lower demand. But search with our tool at the top to see what flight deals are available. 

Booking in advance

Our blog covering ways of bagging a cheap flight shows that you can save money by booking your ticket in advance. Some have stated that to get a cheaper flight you should book 6 weeks before departure or 171 days before an international flight. Whatever the case maybe it is always best to book in advance to get the lowest price.
