Been looking around for cheap flights for next year's school summer holidays and found some cheap flights to Brindisi in Italy. To my mind this is a fantastic deal if you fancy a 10 day holiday in a beautiful part of Italy. As an added bonus the flight times are kid friendly (no silly 2am landings).

Heathrow (London) - Brindisi - Saturday 22 July 2017
Departs 15:10 22 Jul
Arrives 19:05 22 Jul
Flight BA0614

Brindisi - Heathrow (London) - Tuesday 01 August 2017
Departs 19:55 01 Aug
Arrives 21:55 01 Aug
Flight BA0615

1 Adult - £117.20
1 Child - £102.50

Such a bargain I've already booked my family onto these flights. These Basic tickets give you 2 pieces of hand luggage (which is more than enough for us) but if you need to check-in bags then you can upgrade to a Plus ticket which gives you 1 piece of hold baggage.

UPDATE:

Looks like there are some other cheap flights out of Heathrow to be grabbed. Thanks very much to luvsadealdealdeal for the following:

Excellent Avios redemption availability as well - including school hols - because Brindisi was one of a number of flights recently added to BA's roster.

Yeah! Have a few HUKD drinks on the flight. :laughing:

Dunno about accommodation yet. Will probably just book something on AirBnB. It's a cheap area of Italy and you can get a nice apartment for less than £100 a night.

If anyone's interested Avis are doing a good deal on car hire. Just booked a Ford Focus Estate for the 10 days. Came in at just under 250 quid.

Gutted! Seems a bit ridiculous your school opening for just the Monday. I can imagine quite a few kids will be 'sick' that day.

Thank you! We've just booked 1st-8th August for 2x adults, 1x teenager & a child for £417 including the baggage upgrade.... Now just need to find a hotel/villa!

Glad the info has been useful. It's a really lovely unspoilt party of Italy. You'll have a great time.

By the time you get to enjoy these flights, BA short haul will be bring your own food or by M&S sarnies on board.

Ah, no great loss. I don't think anyone will really miss their cup of burnt coffee or their fun size bag of nuts. I always grab my sarnies beforehand at the M&S Simply Food on the ground floor of Terminal 5 anyway.

I chose British Airways over Turkish Airlines from IST to LGW this year one way. I was shocked to find out i'd have to pay nearly as much as I paid for the flight, for luggage, one way. The ticket was like £50 and the luggage cost £40, rip off. Turkish Airline offered it free. I didn't check the baggage info before booking, just assumed British Airways wouldn't do a Ryanair and charge for luggage, especially on an international flight.

Ah yes! Just had a quick look and Heathrow to Pula is only £102 per adult.

I'll update the post then to reflect. Thanks very much for the info.

One of the most middle class threads I've ever seen on HUKD :smiley:

Sorry. I'll post a 10p off a bag of Iceland frozen chips deal to compensate. :wink:

I'm glad you posted this deal.I nearly posted it earlier in the week but didn't have time. A week ago, it was even cheaper. I paid £568 for two adults and three children going out on the 22nd July and coming back on the 5th August to Brindisi with Plus. That is £836.20 now. That said, when I booked BA, Easyjet wanted just under £1500 with baggage and tax and Ryanair wanted a staggering £1980! And the flight times were awful.

If you're going out as a couple, I recommend Hertz for car hire because if you join Hertz Gold Club you can add a second driver who lives at the same address as you for free. This saves about £100 on a fortnight booking. Pay by Mastercard using the Mastercard code and you can save another ten per cent, and there is cashback available too. We're paying about £325 after the cashback (which tracked) for a large automatic estate (Opel Insignia or equivalent) for the two weeks.

There are some very nice villas and hotels around. Plenty of availability.

Not summer holidays!

It depends where you live in the UK. My children break up on 21st July. I looked and there are/were very good deals throughout the summer to the list of destinations included by the OP for our benefit. Why the negativity?

Exclamation marks don't usually denote negativity, 'twas merely an expression of disappointment to the wish that it was school holiday! (Try that in an enthused voice)
