Cheap flights from Edinburgh to Lanzarote

November brings shorter days at the destination but typically lower fares compared with the summer peak season when school holidays drive demand upward. If your schedule allows flexibility around weekday departures rather than weekends, you may find better value across multiple months from October through April. The shoulder periods before and after summer often show steadier pricing without the sudden spikes that appear during major holiday windows.

Several carriers operate services on this route with different approaches to routing and service levels. Ryanair, Easyjet, Jet2 and Emerald Airlines offer direct connections from Edinburgh while others like KLM Royal Dutch Airlines or Transavia France may route passengers through their respective hubs before reaching the island. Full-service options such as Iberia Express and Norwegian International typically include checked baggage in certain fare classes, whereas budget carriers keep base prices lower but charge separately for extras.

Getting into Lanzarote town after landing depends on how far your accommodation sits from Arrecife airport, which generally requires a twenty to thirty minute drive depending on traffic conditions. Bus services run between the terminal and the main settlement throughout daylight hours, though taxis provide faster door-to-door connections if you prefer not to wait for public transport schedules.

Country facts: Wikidata

• Confirm whether your departure flight uses Edinburgh Airport or if alternative Scottish airports offer better value for your specific dates.
• Check baggage allowances carefully since low-cost carriers charge separately for hold luggage that full-service airlines often include in standard tickets.
• Verify connection arrangements when booking separate tickets on different airlines rather than a single through-fare.
• Review entry requirements including passport validity and any documentation needed before traveling to Spain from the United Kingdom.
