Last-minute flights can allow families to go on holiday for a fraction of the usual price, and with the school holidays upon us and money tight for most families, many are keeping an eye out for a bargain. But are there many available from Newcastle and, if so, how low can you go?
Despite the fact that this is the peak season (when flights and holidays are at their most expensive), there are a number of deals that can be had from Newcastle International Airport. Chronicle Live does not recommend nor endorse any of the deals below – they are purely illustrations and prices and availability may change at any time.
You may even find that if you hang on until the last minute, you will find cheaper deals. But there are no guarantees.
