Departure day deal differences
If the October half-term holidays are the only dates during which you can travel, compare different departure dates and times to find the lowest prices. The trade-off for rushing to the airport straight from school on a Friday might be a substantial saving, while travelling from Sunday to Sunday rather than Saturday to Saturday could make a big difference to your overall holiday price.
Frequently asked questions about holidays in October
FAQs
Is it better to book an all-inclusive deal or self-catering in October?
Whether you book an all-inclusive or self-catering holiday depends on the type of break you want. All-inclusive holidays can offer better overall value if you enjoy eating and drinking at your hotel, especially in resorts where dining out is expensive. However, self-catering suits those who want a little more freedom to explore local restaurants, set their own mealtimes and can stick to a daily budget.
Can I still find cheap last-minute holiday deals in October?
Yes, October is often a great month for last-minute savings. Demand usually falls after the summer holidays, although prices rise around the October half-term. If your travel dates and destination are flexible, you may be able to find cheap October holiday deals with excellent discounts closer to departure.
Should I book a short-haul or long-haul holiday package in October?
Both long and short-haul can offer great value in October, depending on what you're looking for. Short-haul destinations are ideal if you’d like to avoid a long flight, while long-haul holidays are a good option if you're chasing tropical sunshine or want to make the most of autumn with a longer escape. Some long-haul breaks can, in fact, be cheaper than short-haul destinations.
