Hi

I enjoy seeing new places with cheap flights, sometimes with friends or family but some solo trips.

I’ve already been to the following places:
spain - Benidorm, Alicante, Barcelona, Majorca & Tenerife
belgium - Brussels and battlefields
France - Paris, Lourdes and battlefields
Netherlands - Amsterdam, Rotterdam and Leiden
Budapest, Hungary
Bucharest, Romania
Berlin, Germany
krakow, Poland

This winter I’m looking at Prague, Gran Canaria/Lanzarote in January and Morocco in February. I’m open to anywhere within about 5-6 hours max flight. I find ways to do them cheaply. Any suggestions welcome. I’ve also been to Australia, NZ, Singapore and Dubai.

Have you thought about Bologna? It's cheaper than lots of other Italian cities, loads to do, nice food, plus you can do day trips to Florence and Venice.

Recommend Venice (cheaper to stay on the mainland and bus in each day), Gibraltar (English in a fun way - go down the side streets to find tapas bars not ham egg and chips), Split in Croatia (stunning, I'm going back there).

Cheap equals where cheap flights go! So just look at destinations and add a hotel. Once you get into travelling beyond the airport city, it adds up. We find flying schedules flights ok these days for price. Often better times of day and, for us, a more convenient airport.
