Cheap flights from Belfast to Tenerife

Demand tracks the island's season: the Canaries draw winter sun-seekers, so autumn and winter dates fill around school half-terms and the Christmas and New Year break. November is the cheapest month on this route, and the fare calendar also covers October through to July plus September, so you can see how each month compares. Shoulder dates outside the school holidays tend to be the calmest bets; check midweek departures against weekend ones before you commit.

Jet2 and Easyjet carry the low-cost side of the route, flying direct from Belfast with fares that typically cover little beyond your seat and a small bag. Aer Lingus, British Airways and KLM Royal Dutch Airlines sit on the full-service side, usually routing through their own hubs, with KLM Cityhopper, BA CityFlyer, Emerald Airlines and Loganair Limited feeding those connections on regional legs. What is included differs sharply: checked baggage, seat choice and food are add-ons with the budget carriers but often part of the fare with the legacy ones, so price the whole trip, not just the ticket.

Tenerife Sur is the larger of the two airports and the one most holiday flights use; it sits well out from the main resort areas, so leave time for the transfer by bus or pre-booked shuttle. Tenerife Norte is smaller and closer to Santa Cruz on the island's northern side, which makes for a quicker exit but a longer drive if your hotel is in the south. Check which airport your ticket names before you arrange a pickup, because crossing the island between the two takes a good part of your first day.

Country facts: Wikidata

• Confirm whether checked baggage, cabin bags and seat selection cost extra on the low-cost fares before you compare headline prices.
• Check which Tenerife airport your flight uses, since Tenerife Sur and Tenerife Norte are far apart and the transfer differs.
• If you book separate tickets to build a connection, leave enough slack in case the first leg slips.
• Check passport validity and any entry requirements for Spain before you travel.
• Compare dates across the price calendar: November is the cheapest month, but school holidays and the Christmas break push fares up.
