After the busy summer rush, many people will be looking for cheaper flights outside of the high season. October is still a great time to go abroad if you don't mind cooler temperatures, with prices often dipping much lower due to less demand.
Bristol Airport recently announced a new flight link to Bydgoszcz in Poland, and a flight one way will set you back as little as £17.99 with Ryanair. Located in northern Poland and the eighth-largest city in the country, it boasts bars, museums, sporting events and more and has been dubbed one of Poland's best-kept secrets.
If you're looking to fly direct to a destination in Europe for cheap then you're in luck - there are a number of holiday hotspots offering flights under £50 one way next month. Bristol Airport flies to dozens of destinations throughout the year including France, Portugal, Spain and Austria - and has even started flying to some US destinations.
