easyJet is offering flights from under £32 for the August Bank Holiday weekend, enabling travellers to take a short European break without booking any time off work. The airline has promoted what it calls the "Bank Holiday Loophole" for people who work Monday to Friday, allowing them to fly out on Friday evening or Saturday morning, spend the weekend overseas, and return before the end of Bank Holiday Monday.
Flights from Under £32
The cheapest option is a one-way flight from Liverpool to Mallorca, priced from £31.99. Other deals include Manchester to Malaga from £39.99, Birmingham to Gran Canaria from £44.99, and London Luton to Faro from £47.99. Many destinations can be reached in less than three hours, with flights available from airports across England, Scotland, and Northern Ireland.
However, the advertised prices cover only the outbound journey, meaning passengers must also find and pay for a suitable return flight. Accommodation, airport transfers, and spending money are not included.
More Seats and Destinations
easyJet said it would operate more than 800,000 seats from the UK during the Bank Holiday weekend, six per cent more than last year. The airline is also offering 56 more destinations, including new routes to Preveza in Greece, Reus in Spain, and Ljubljana in Slovenia. Amsterdam and Paris are said to be among the most popular choices for shorter weekend trips.
Tony Hopkins, trading and development director at easyJet holidays, said: "More people are looking to make the most of Bank Holiday weekends, and it's easy to see why. A short break offers the chance to switch off, explore somewhere new and enjoy great value, all without using a single day's annual leave."
