Currently, January is the cheapest month in which you can book a flight to Gran Canaria (average of £105). Flying to Gran Canaria in August will prove the most costly (average of £356). There are multiple factors that influence the price of a flight so comparing airlines, departure airports and times can help keep costs down.
Peak season:
The peak season lasts almost the entire year thanks to being kissed by the sun almost every day. In the peak of Summer you’ll find temperatures reach the mid 30’s so June to August might not be the wisest time to book your flight tickets if you can’t handle overbearing heat. You’ll also struggle to find cheap flights to Gran Canaria in the peak of Summer too as many tourists flock to the island. Spring time is a great time to secure cheap flights to Gran Canaria without having to fight for beach space, as is Autumn. The weather is still very warm and pleasant although you’ll find the evenings are a little chilly.
Off season:
Due to the weather always being warm and sunny there isn’t much of an off season however you’ll find the cheapest flights to Gran Canaria around January and February. Temperatures can still be warm although nowhere near the intensity of the rest of the year. There is a week somewhere around October or November of very heavy rain that lasts for the best part of all day. Avoid these months if you don’t want to risk being stuck inside due to the weather.

Located approximately 19km (12 miles) south of the city of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, and 25km (16 miles) north of the island’s popular tourist areas, Gran Canaria Airport (LPA) or Las Palmas Airport – locally referred to as “Aeropuerto de Gando” – handles almost 9.5 million passengers per year. It is the Canary Islands’ busiest aerial hub and Spain’s fifth-busiest airport.
With a reasonable selection of shops and places to wine and dine, as well as warm and friendly services and an assortment of facilities, Gran Canaria Airport offers a pleasant experience. Clear days offer majestic views of distant mountains, however, breezier weather brings extreme tailwinds to the island, sometimes affecting flight schedules. In general, though, temperatures at Las Palmas International range from mild to moderate throughout the year, so you needn’t carry much in your hand luggage except for a camera, cap and pair of shades.
Like all tourist gateways, Las Palmas can get chaotic at times, especially during the peak months of July and August. However, staff do their best to offer assistance in terms of speeding up procedures and going the extra mile to help passengers.

Taxis are the common form of transport from the airport and they aren’t overly expensive, although if you can split the fare with a friend or two then it’ll be much more worthwhile.
