Which is the cheapest Spanish holiday destination – Alicante, Barcelona, Malaga, the Balearics or the Canaries?
Barcelona is the cheapest of the popular holiday towns. Return flights average £108 compared with £115 for Malaga, £134 for Alicante, £169 for Gran Canaria and £173 for Ibiza.
When’s the cheapest month to fly to Spain?
Our comparison focused on average prices across the year, but for some destinations you could save hundreds by avoiding an August flight. It’s £222 cheaper to fly to Gran Canaria in January than August, despite January still having average high temperatures of 20°C and seven hours of sunshine.
If you’re after great food and scenery rather than hot sunshine, you can fly to the Costa Brava airport Girona for just £30 return in February.
For other destinations it’s Christmas that sees flights rocket. Flights to A Coruña in Galicia are only £60 on average in November but shoot up to £265 in December. It’s £99 to visit Ibiza in February, but £291 in December. Many early December flights to Spain are cheap – and it’s specifically the Christmas period when airfares soar.
