How to find the cheapest flights to Sicily and Costa Blanca?
Despite the attractive accommodation offer, access to the apartments is often problematic. If you are traveling by car , check out this post with tips.
The sooner you buy tickets, the better deals you can get. However, this does not mean that you cannot buy cheap plane tickets . How to do it? Check out the instructions I prepared for you!
Sometimes it is enough to postpone your vacation by 1 day to save up to several dozen euros per person. When traveling with the whole family, a huge difference can be made!
1. Go to a flight comparison website - there are several of them, but I will describe SkyScanner.
2. Enter the name of the airport you are flying from. IMPORTANT! Are you close to several airports or do you have no problem getting to another one? You can select the entire country and compare prices.
3. Enter the name of your destination airport. If you're flying to Sicily, check Palermo. If you are going to the Costa Blanca – look for Alicante.
4. Select the ENTIRE MONTH in which you are on vacation. This is important because, as I mentioned, one day can make a huge difference. Finally, enter the number of travelers. I also suggest selecting the "Direct flights" option to avoid the option with a stopover.
5. After clicking "Search", you will receive a list of departure cities to choose from, along with information on how much the cheapest flights cost. At this stage, compare whether it will be cheaper and more convenient for you to reach the airport with the cheapest flight, or maybe it is much closer and it is more expensive and the fuel/travel surcharge will still cost you more than the price difference between the tickets. Select your departure point.
6. Compare the dates when you can take leave. The cheapest options will be displayed in green. Look at our example! Flights 13-20/09 (at the time of writing the article) cost €151 round trip.
If you choose both departure and return the day before, you will pay €50 more per person!
If you don't have a fixed vacation date, try checking the following months as well. A month later, we see tickets that are even €60 cheaper!
As you can see, the ticket price between dates 2 and 3 is a difference of over €100 per person. And if you just thought that it's because it's already a "cold October": the average air temperature on the Costa Blanca is 23°C during the day and 17°C at night. The average water temperature reaches 25°C. 7. Perfect flights found – what next?

After clicking “Find flights” you will receive details: flight times and carrier. You DO NOT HAVE to buy tickets through an intermediary, i.e. SkyScanner. You can go to the carrier's official website, enter exactly the same parameters that were the cheapest on the comparison website and buy tickets there. Remember not to delay buying tickets when you find an interesting offer. Promotional flight prices can go up even within a FEW MINUTES!
