Cheap flights from Dortmund to London

Book at least six weeks before your departure date to find better fares on this route. July tends to offer the lowest prices throughout the year, but prices stay fairly stable from October through September with no dramatic swings between high and low seasons. Midweek flights often cost less than weekend departures, though the difference isn't always worth changing your schedule for. Avoid booking during school holiday periods if you want lower prices, as demand drives fares up regardless of what month it is.

The route carries a mix of budget carriers and full-service operators across all months with pricing data. EasyJet operates under multiple European licences while Wizz Air runs services through its UK and Malta bases alongside the parent company. Eurowings and Condor represent the legacy carriers, offering something different from the low-cost options that dominate schedules. Sun Express and Pegasus appear less frequently on this corridor but provide alternative routing if needed. Check what each airline includes with your ticket before comparing prices, as baggage allowances differ significantly between these operators.

Plan how you'll reach central London once you land rather than worrying about connections during your journey. Heathrow offers the most convenient rail links to the centre while Gatwick and Stansted require longer transfer times from their more distant locations. Luton sits furthest out with coach services being your main option into town, and London City Airport places you closest to financial districts but limits which airlines serve it. Factor in extra time for airport transfers when planning your arrival schedule, especially if travelling during rush hours or with heavy luggage.

• Confirm which London airport serves your flight since each carrier operates from different terminals across the five airports.
• Check whether your fare includes checked baggage as low-cost operators charge separately for this service on most tickets.
• Verify visa requirements and passport validity before booking if you're not a UK or EU citizen traveling to Britain.
• Consider travel insurance costs when comparing total prices rather than just base fares without protection included.
• Book accommodation near your arrival airport to reduce transfer expenses especially during peak summer periods.
