Tenerife is hugely popular with Brits as a summer holiday destination, and its promise of sun, sea and sand means it’s particularly busy during the school summer holidays during July and August. Expect flight prices to rise during this time.
That said, a great many budget airlines fly to Tenerife, and if you shop around it's still possible to find some cheap deals (relatively speaking). Thomas Cook Airlines, Norwegian, TUI and easyJet all have flights to Tenerife.
You might also want to consider travelling outside of peak tourist season. Tenerife has a warm climate year-round, with temperatures often reaching the twenties even in December and January. Spring and autumn's lower temperatures are also ideal for hiking and mountain biking trips.
The average non-stop flight time between the UK and Tenerife is between 4 hours 10 minutes and 4 hours 50 minutes. Most airports in the UK fly direct to Tenerife, so there is no need to stop and change – in fact, it’s normally cheaper to fly direct. Indirect flights could see you arriving at Tenerife-Norte Airport in the north of the island. UK airports with direct flights to Tenerife include London Gatwick, Luton, Bristol and Manchester.
Departure airport | Destination airport | Average flight time |

Bristol (BRS) | Tenerife-Sur (TFS) | 4h 15m |
Birmingham (BHX) | Tenerife-Sur (TFS) | 4h 30m |
Manchester (MAN) | Tenerife-Sur (TFS) | 4h 40m |

Tenerife’s temperate climate and beautiful beaches make it a popular choice for a fly-and-flop beach holiday. If that sounds like your idea of heaven, you might consider a flight and hotel package to Playa de las Américas, on the island’s southwest tip. This is the tourist hub of Tenerife, where you’ll find glitzy resorts and shopping malls, lively nightlife, and even Vegas-style mock-Egyptian pyramids.
If you prefer the great outdoors, Tenerife has that covered too. The Anaga Mountains, in the northeast of the island, promise some truly spectacular hiking, jungle treks, and scenic drives. Most spectacular of all is the Parque Nacional del Teide, centred on Mount Teide, slap-bang in the middle of the island, and home to some otherworldly volcanic landscapes.
Tenerife’s diversity and manageable size mean that hiring a car is a great option. That way, you won’t be limited to one place, and can explore the island independently at your own pace.
