Cheap flights & hotels

diver said:
The other day i priced up a quick 4 nighter to Ibiza mid Oct with jet2, it was twice the price of the same (actually 5 nights in 2022) holiday this year -£900 average type hotel.
they must have massive overheads or something is massively wrong.
not even a busy time i’m looking at and Easyjet have flight only for £87
it’s madness
I think their model is built on 7 day “all in”travel

Yeh usually Jet2 and TUI are better for standard 7 or 14 night trips to big resorts as they block book rooms, but for other trip lengths or less popular places it can be cheaper to book things separately.
 
I was having a quick nosy, and even 7/10/14 nights in pdb end of sept is either impossible to find, or around ~£500 per day.

Which is crazy.

Perhaps we are moving to a double peak and dip season going forwards. (Start/end season, August dip 🤷‍♂️)
 
Return flight tickets from London to Ibiza are just £92 with Vueling airlines - for January and February.

Great news, and about time. Never understood why they didn’t continue on with this route after Covid. Literally 5 miles down the road from me. Annoyingly I’ve booked flights already but always room for another trip 🤞🏻

Really thinking of giving Ibiza (and anywhere on the continent) a miss this summer/autumn; partly due to the prices, partly due to the EES clogging up airports. Some of the reports from Spain and Portugal are horrendous and we're totally off-peak, Might look at early October, it was lovely last year and the sea still warm so that's a possibility.

Really am getting fed up of air travel these days - have booked the Channel Islands (easyJet) twice next year so I'll have to suffer the living hell that is Manchester T2, but at least no passport or EES to bother with!

My plan of London City > Ibiza in March has been abandoned (going to Jersey instead) so I won't be getting my EES done any time in the near future.

So that's one year of my shiny new passport unused!
 
Trying to find decently priced flights in June/July not great so far even with new year deals. They are around but restricted by late flight times/mid week :confused:
 
Late June, best deal around Ibiza city is (solo) £495 for 4 nights in the Cenit. Anything cheaper = shared bathroom in a hostal. Vibra Maritimo, about as basic as it gets, is asking over £800 for the same.

Of course on the more expensive Formentera, the Roca Bella (again, basic but balcony always gives a decent view) over a grand.

They can effoff. Absolutely no chance of me going on my regular June holiday there, and that doesn't include probable EES delays.
