Cheapflights.co.uk doesn’t sell tickets, we advertise the best deals from more than 700 companies (more than one million deals in total) from the biggest carriers to the smallest regional and charter operations so you can compare prices and find the cheapest fare. As we are not a part of any large airline group or travel company, we can list offers independently and impartially. Our website is a neutral space that allows users to compare prices and find the flight that suits them. There are several ways to find the perfect flight:
When you know where you want to go…
As well as the main search box, the home page has links to the most popular destinations worldwide. Click on any of the links and, quick as a flash, you will be taken to a departure page which will list the airport nearest you. From there, select your departure point and browse the prices displayed by the different advertisers, which include scheduled flights, charter flights and low-cost airlines.
Think inside the box
Fill in your preferred departure airport and destination in the search boxes to find the best deals. If you are not sure of your nearest airport or would like to shop around, click on "List all departures" for a list of all airports in the UK and Ireland. If you would like to check all destinations in a particular country, click on "List all destinations".
Use the booking engine
Search by date with an online booking engine in association with third party travel companies, including British Airways, TravelRepublic, expedia.co.uk, XL and Monarch.co.uk. Enter your requirements for flights by departure date and ticket type and choose one of the travel company search engines on the right to run your search. Select the fare that catches your eye and book online (or telephone during office hours). Remember that online booking engines have very good fares but are unlikely to always have the cheapest ones. Each search engine has different strengths so you will do best to compare the prices given by all before making a purchase.
