Where to find last minute cancellation trips?

Rowley Birkin QC · 2022-07-13 14:43:47

As I tend to do, I haven't planned any holidays and now have a hankering to go somewhere near the sea for a week or two. I'm flexible on travel dates, origins and destinations. Just wondering if anyone has a good resource for last minute trips like this, buying other people's cancellations etc.? Cheers!

Last minute bargains are sadly a thing of the past - pent up demand for holidays has put paid to this.

holidaypirates.com can be good if you are willing to route through to a UK airport to start your trip. As was said demand is high so few and far between this summer, possibly Sept/Oct the time to go when schools are back.

Hugh demand and many cancelled flights mean last minute cancellation bookings will be very rare.

I've gotten too used to booking last minute flights for work without looking at prices, cheers all for the suggestions!
