Travel expert reveals the best time to book winter flights for a cheap Christmas getaway
Plus tricks to make sure you're getting the best deal BUDGET BREAK Travel expert reveals the best time to book winter flights for a cheap Christmas getaway Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) THINKING about jetting off on a Christmas getaway before the summer holidays have even arrived might seem bonkers. But experts have revealed that booking up for the cold, winter months while the sun is still shining is a great way to save some cash. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 3 Experts have told how you should be looking for a winter getaway during the summer Credit: PA 3 And there is one month where you can grab a good deal on a Christmas holiday Credit: Alamy So, if you're already eyeing up a December destination, then you might want to take note. Travel pros have found that the festive flight market follows predictable patterns that most passengers are unaware of. Prices for a Christmas getaway immediately start to climb from September onwards, and can reach eye-watering peaks by November. This is because most people start panic-booking and leave it to the last minute to organise a trip. So if you want to save money and find a cheap deal, experts have said the best time to book up for a festive trip is JUNE. Fred Harrington, a personal finance expert at SaveMyCent, revealed that this month is the "perfect window" to sort a winter holiday if you want to save some serious cash. We get so caught up in the immediate season that we miss incredible opportunities sitting right under our noses Fred Harrington He said: "Most people think booking Christmas flights in June is mad, but the data tells a completely different story. 'There's something fascinating about vacation booking psychology that works against most travellers. "We get so caught up in the immediate season that we miss incredible opportunities sitting right under our noses. "People are booking their August beach vacations right now, but completely ignoring December flights that are literally at their cheapest point of the year. Cheapest family holiday destinations for summer 2025 revealed "I've seen families stress about Christmas flight costs every single year, then kick themselves when they realise they could have saved hundreds by thinking ahead. "The airlines count on this predictable behaviour - they know most people will panic-book in autumn and pay whatever prices they set. 'What's brilliant about the June booking window is that it requires zero sacrifice. "You're not gambling on last-minute deals or settling for inconvenient times. "You're simply working with airline pricing cycles instead of against them. "Right now, we're in that perfect window where Christmas feels far enough away that most people aren't thinking about it, but close enough that airlines have released their full December inventory. 'By July, summer vacation demand will peak, and airlines start adjusting their algorithms for autumn booking patterns. 'That's when Christmas fares begin their steady climb upward." Fred also told how timing is everything when it comes to getting a good deal - and the days of the week you book up can actually have a massive impact on the price. To keep costs down, he advises booking on a Tuesday or Wednesday, and try to fly out on these same days, plus Saturdays. He explained: 'Airlines release their cheapest fare batches midweek. 'Weekend bookings often trigger higher pricing tiers because the algorithms assume you're leisure travellers with flexible budgets. Why do Christmas flight prices go crazy? DECEMBER flights don't just get expensive - they get absolutely bonkers. Fred explains that the madness typically starts in September when early bookers begin their search. By October, demand ramps up properly. Come November, you're looking at premium prices across the board as last-minute bookers scramble for remaining seats. He says: "Airlines know families will pay whatever it takes to get home for the holidays, so prices can jump substantially compared to off-peak times". Airlines use sophisticated pricing algorithms that constantly adjust fares based on search patterns, booking trends, and competitor pricing. And what many people don't realise is that these systems are designed to capitalise on predictable booking behaviours. Fred explains: 'The algorithms are incredibly smart, but they also follow patterns. 'June represents a dead zone for Christmas flight searches. Airlines haven't ramped up their festive pricing yet because demand signals are still quiet.' "Flying midweek also avoids the premium pricing that kicks in for Friday and Sunday departures when business travellers and weekend warriors push up demand." However, it's not just about timing - searching is also key for nabbing a cheap winter holiday. Fred says his "Flight Search Stacking' method is his "secret weapon" and has urged everyone to try it before they book up. The stacking method involves comparing not just prices, but date flexibility and layover options across platforms - and it can save you hundreds of pounds. Which means you can often uncover 'ghost fares' - which are lower-tier deals that only appear on certain sites or through alternative routing options. Fred said: "The Flight Search Stacking technique takes maybe an extra 10 minutes but can easily save you hundreds. "Run parallel searches across multiple platforms - Google Flights, Skyscanner, airline websites - but always in incognito or private browsing mode. 'Airlines track your searches and can actually bump up prices if they think you're desperate for a particular route.'

British holidaymakers to miss out on compensation after EU rule change
Britons will miss out on compensation for delayed flights after Brussels adopted a rule change following complaints from airlines. Payouts that were previously triggered by delays exceeding three hours will now only be made after four hours of holdups, European transport ministers agreed. The new regulation, hammered out following a decade of discussions and bargaining over passenger compensation, will apply to all services from EU countries to the UK. For the time being, travellers headed from Britain to the Continent will still qualify for a refund when flight delays hit the three-hour mark, unless they are flying with an EU-registered airline. While raising the compensation threshold, ministers also agreed to increase the minimum level of payment from €250 (£210) to €300 for shorter journeys and to €500 for those above 3,500km (2,175 miles). The original regulation, known as EU261, was passed in 2004 with the aim of ensuring that passengers received money and assistance in the event of flights being cancelled at short notice. Following Brexit, the UK adopted it into law so that the rights of travellers remained unchanged. However, the Government will now have to decide whether to adopt the amendments for outbound flights or stick with the original version. Taking no action might be welcomed by consumer groups but would have consequences for UK airlines, which would be at a disadvantage to their European rivals. It could also affect fares, with Ryanair having claimed that EU261 costs passengers £7 per ticket. Airlines for Europe, an industry group, had pressed for a higher compensation threshold, arguing that extending it to five hours – as originally proposed by the European Commission – would allow 70pc of flights that are cancelled to be rescued. It argued said that airlines inevitably scrapped flights once compensation was triggered, especially since the payouts involved were often higher than the ticket prices charged. It said a five-hour threshold would have made it more practical for carriers to fly in replacement aircraft so that more flights would get away, potentially benefiting 10m passengers a year. A spokesman said: 'Getting to their destination is the primary concern of passengers, even if it means getting to bed or arriving at their holiday resort late. But with a low cancellation threshold it makes more sense to call off the flight and take that hit.' Airlines have also railed against the fact that the compensation applies whether delays are caused by a crew shortage or technical issue that might be laid at their door, or by severe weather or air traffic control issues beyond their control. A number of extraordinary circumstances are expected to be added as part of revisions to 31 different air passenger rights. The revisions must still clear the European Parliament but are expected to become law in the bloc by the end of the year. The Department for Transport said the UK did not have to amend its legislation in line with any changes from the EU, and that any potential future reforms would require careful consideration on their merits, and be subject to public consultation.

Burger chain which suddenly closed restaurants making shock return to Scots city
They had previously blamed the cost-of-living crisis for closing their previous city restaurant WE'RE BACK Burger chain which suddenly closed restaurants making shock return to Scots city Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) A POPULAR restaurant chain, which abruptly closed several of its Scottish locations earlier this year, is set to make a comeback. Monterey Jack's is renowned for its gourmet American-style burgers, hot dogs, nachos, and cocktails. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 4 They are set to reopen in Glasgow this month Credit: Scottish Sun 4 Signage has appeared in the shopping centre Credit: Scottish Sun 4 Monterey Jack's announces return of their restaurant to Glasgow Credit: Scottish Sun However, over the past year, the franchise lost several locations, including Dunfermline, East Kilbride, and Glasgow City Centre. At the time, bosses attributed the closures to the cost-of-living crisis, staffing challenges, and tough economic conditions. The chain currently operates six locations across Scotland. But there is good news on the horizon for the burger brand, as it prepares to celebrate its 10th anniversary. Monterey Jack's is set to make a significant return to the country's largest city after losing its central Glasgow location. The new venue is expected to open this month. Signage has already appeared in the St Enoch Centre, indicating a new location is on its way. Large branding has been installed in the shopping precinct's newest food court, accompanied by a "coming soon" sign that reads: "It's happening." The sign also states: "Award-winning, 100 per cent fresh, prime beef burgers. Succulent chicken, gourmet dawgs, delicious fresh shakes and desserts, and a bucket load of sides. You lucky things!" The firm confirmed via its Facebook page that the site is set to open in June 2025 though the exact opening date remains unclear. The Sun tries Wetherspoons' new menu Fans of the chain have taken to the comments to share their excitement about its return. One wrote: "Love MJ's! This will be great when we're shopping in Glasgow!" Another commented: "As centre staff myself, I actually can't wait to try Monterey Jack's UK – never tried it before!" A third added: "I loved the one in Merchant Square. "Such a shame it closed, like most places in there recently. "Looking forward to it opening."
