This £26 flight could see sunseekers sipping sangria in Spain on the bank holiday weekend

If you are looking to get away over the August bank holiday weekend, one-way flights to Alicante have appeared online for as little as £26.52 in August.

Flying with Ryanair direct from Newcastle International Airport, prices range from £26 up to £48 over the five days period from Saturday, August 26 to Thursday, August 31.

The price includes one small cabin bag, but priority boarding, large cabin bags and reserved seats can be added for an additional £35 each way. Passengers can also add up to 20kg of hold luggage for £53.49 each way.

Cut-price flights are hard to find in the high season, but budget airline Ryanair has a dedicated Fare Finder on its website to help travellers locate flights for less.

As well as rock-bottom flights to Alicante, the gateway to popular tourist destinations including the Costa Brava, Torrevieja and Benidorm, there are also deals to be had on other sunshine destinations this summer.

At the time of writing, the lowest Ryanair flight prices from Newcastle Airport include:

July

  • Chania, Greece - from £19
  • Ibiza - from £21.34
  • Palma de Mallorca, Spain - from £21.91
  • Barcelona, Spain - from £39.99

August

  • Riga, Latvia - from £21.70
  • Faro, Portugal - from £22.76
  • Alicante, Spain - from £26.52
  • Fuerteventura, Spain - from £41.99

There are many surprisingly cheap deals on flights to be found across the summer months, costing much less than you would expect during the high season.

Whether you want to enjoy some sun and sangria on the beach or explore historic streets on a city break, you can find lots of affordable flights from Ryanair, easyJet and Jet2, with hotel rooms by the bucket load available at discounted prices on Booking.com.
