Currently, October is the cheapest month in which you can book a flight to United Kingdom (average of $1,198). Flying to United Kingdom in August will prove the most costly (average of $1,631). There are multiple factors that influence the price of a flight so comparing airlines, departure airports and times can help keep costs down.

Peak season

The peak tourist season throughout the United Kingdom corresponds with the Summer school holidays from late July through to early September. Many of the most popular tourist attractions get very busy and both accommodation and flight prices soar. This is the best season weather-wise, however, with mild temperatures and far less rain than at other times of the year.

Off season

The quietest season throughout the United Kingdom when you will get the best hotel deals is over the cold, wet Winter months of December through to February, although drizzly rain and chilly temperatures can be expected for a couple of months either side of this period. Some tourist attractions close down during this offseason, but if you opt to travel in late Spring or early Autumn you will benefit from mild weather, without the crowds.
