Netherlands flights
The Netherlands is a popular destination with around 10million foreign visitors taking flights there every year. Amsterdam with its canals, museums, red light district and infamous coffee shops is the most visited Dutch city but the country has much more to offer including its capital, The Hague; the modern city of Rotterdam, with its harbour and shopping; the picturesque town of Delft which is famous for its blue and white pottery and the old Roman city of Maastricht also famous for the 1991 European Union Treaty. The Dutch countryside is also popular with the flat landscape punctuated by vast tulip fields, canals and windmills. It is easy to find cheap flights to the Netherlands as it is served by major airlines as well as numerous budget carriers. Flights to the Netherlands usually take less than two hours from UK airports.
Peak season
The Netherlands is an attractive destination all year-round but its high season is during the summer months, particularly from May-September when the weather, which is not dissimilar to the UK climate, is at its best. This is a popular period to discover the coastline across the North Sea but flight prices do rise at this time of year so it's worth using our price comparison tool to search for the best deals.
Spring is also a popular time of year as thousands travel to see the tulip fields in flower.
Off season
With the weather being similar to that here in the UK, the Netherlands can be cold and wet during the winter months but there is no bad time to visit as the larger cities maintain their buzz all year-round and activities such as cycling, sailing and ice skating reach their peak towards the end of the year. If you want to secure a cheap flight to the Netherlands look for quotes between November and March.
