Easter break and bank holiday deals for 2020
Fancy a cheap Easter holiday in 2020? Egg-cellent! You’ve come to the right place – start looking early for the best chance of a cracking deal.
The school break offers the perfect opportunity for families to get away for a jaunt in the sun, while couples and groups can use the Easter weekend to head off on an exciting city break or relaxing short beach holiday.
Why go away at Easter?
Easter 2020 will fall at the end of April (Easter Sunday is on April 21), when spring is getting into full swing in the UK and temperatures in Europe are rising fast.
The Easter holidays are a popular time to go away, especially for families, as school children tend to have two weeks off. Florida is always an Easter family favourite, along with the Canary Islands, the Spanish mainland, and Mediterranean islands such as Cyprus and Malta.
If you're planning a shorter trip, it's a lovely time to go on a city break, to hop on a ferry over the Channel, or to plan a UK holiday to see the country in blossom. This year Good Friday and Easter Monday fall on April 19 and April 22 respectively, offering the chance of a long break without using up any precious holiday days from work.
