If your next weekend getaway just can’t come soon enough, we would recommend taking a look at Expedia’s last-minute deals section, which could save you 20 per cent on upcoming trips to hot-ticket cities and destinations such as Barcelona, Paris, Lisbon, Dubai and Istanbul.

With Expedia’s OneKeyCash rewards programme, there’s up to 25 per cent off when adding a hotel after booking a flight. From a luxurious stay at the AlmaLusa Baixa and Chiado hotel in Lisbon, to a Parisian chic getaway in the Hotel Bassano in Paris, this could see members save hundreds of pounds on their booking. The free travel rewards programme, launched in 2023, can be used to book eligible hotels, holiday rentals, car hire, activities and flights for members’ prices. Benefits improve as you move up the tiers from Blue to Silver, Gold and Platinum status. T&Cs apply.

You can save up to 10 per cent when you bundle your flight, hotel and car rental in an Expedia package holiday. The easy travel bookings for Unesco hotspots, honeymoon islands and winter snowscapes are also ATOL-protected and easy to book on the Expedia app. T&Cs apply.

When is the best time to book a holiday with Expedia for optimum savings?

As is the case with many travel providers, you may be more likely to get a cheaper price if you book well in advance, so, if you can, it’s always a good idea to get in there early. Try to start planning well ahead of when you actually want to travel, and you may be able find cheaper accommodation. That being said, Expedia holds seasonal sales, as well as last-minute offers, which could be worth looking into, too.

Why choose Expedia?

“For an easy all-in holiday, it’s hard to beat Expedia. With flights, hotels, and – usually complicated – car rentals all bundled in one it’s a convenient choice for last-minute holidaymakers. Better still the travel search engine shows the best return flight offers from a combination of airlines, has broad filters for multi-city browsing and flexible cancellation policies,” says junior travel writer Natalie Wilson.
