Getting to the alternative
Costa del Sol.

Flights

Our local airport is at Malaga which serves all of the Costa del Sol and as it is one of the most popular flight destinations from the UK, it is nearly always possible to find seats at a good price on one of the many flights each day, if you shop around a little.

The airlines price their seats in one of two different ways - scheduled flights tend to start low and get more expensive as the flight fills up whereas charter flights generally get cheaper as the departure date gets nearer, in an effort to fill the plane.

Whether you are looking to book your flights well in advance or at the last minute the following sites are easy to use and search a good range of scheduled and charter airlines, returning a number of options to choose between. When comparing prices make sure you look at them very carefully as not all the companies quote fares including airport taxes etc. which can make quite a difference.
