Whether Britons are yet to book a summer holiday or already feeling the urge to get away again, September is a fantastic time to take a break.
The summer heat has usually died down and some of Europe’s top attractions are far less crowded than during peak season. But where are the cheapest destinations?
Express.co.uk scoured Skyscanner to find the cheapest flights for a break in September. From charming cities in southern France to Scandinavian adventures, there are plenty of spots with flights on offer for under £25.
Britons will need to check the cost of accommodation before they book and some flights may require passengers to pay extra to bring hold luggage. However, with these flight attendant tips, there might not be a need to travel with anything more than hand luggage.
Flight prices tend to rise the sooner it gets to the departure date so it’s usually best to snap up a ticket as soon as possible.
