Afternoon STW.

Me and the other half are planning a few trips away throughout January and February next year. Nowhere specific, just new places with new things to see.

We used to use a website that compiled all the amazing deals airlines are offering. Things like Ryan Air flights for £7 each way, but we can't find a similar thing now.
Obviously we can sit through the airlines websites and search, but we don't really have an exact destination in mind.

Does anybody know of a website that compiles the best deals or spur of the moment offers?

Thanks
J

Skyscanner?

Skyscanner, sometimes combined with Expedia.

That's the best I've found, but I'm all ears if there's something better?

EasyJet have an "inspire me" thing. It gives you a map and prices to the points on the map.

Skyscanner is our go to website at the moment, but we find it's only usefull if you have a vague idea of location.
Unless I have missed a certain part?

I'll give the easyJet site a go!

I have a theory that, for a city break, you can't really go wrong with destination, and it's the company you're in that makes the difference.

In any European city, you will get:

Good eating and drinking
Museums, galleries, monuments & other tourist attractions
Bars/clubs
Bike hire
Shopping

This is why, last year, we enjoyed Belfast as much as we enjoyed Amsterdam. And on one occasion we sacked off the flights and got the train to Edinburgh.

Do you know that on skyscanner you can choose your departing airport and then type 'everywhere' as your destination and it then shows you the cheapest destinations from your airport?

Skyscanner

Holiday pirates

Azoun - costs £10 for a year license but found it worth it as save more than that on a single flight normally. Has much better search functionality than any website I have found.

@hebdencyclist - or if you're a solo traveller, go to Berlin. You'll make friends in a few hours and have an absolute scream 😉

(itching to book another trip!)

You'll want the "Explore" feature on Kayak

Type in your home airport, budget and month of travel, and it'll give you the available destinations
