Cheap flights from London to Bari

November is the cheapest month on this route, sitting between the summer crowds and the run-up to Christmas. Fares climb through the school holidays and peak in high summer, when Puglia fills with Italian holidaymakers and the coast south of Bari gets busy. Late spring and early autumn give you warm weather with lighter demand. Midweek departures usually cost less than weekend ones, and booking a few weeks ahead beats leaving it to the last minute. If your dates are flexible, watch the price calendar and let it decide for you.

Several carriers share this route. Ryanair and Ryanair UK, Easyjet, Wizz Air, Wizz Air UK and Wizz Air Malta, Vueling Airlines, Norwegian, ITA Airways and Mokulele Flight Service all appear in the listings. The low-cost carriers here are Ryanair, Easyjet, Wizz Air, Vueling and Norwegian. They sell you a seat and charge separately for cabin bags, checked luggage and seat choice, so a low headline fare can grow once you add what you actually need. ITA Airways is the full-service option, with more built into the fare. The Wizz Air companies are separate operators, so check which one is named on your ticket.

Your flight lands at Palese, the airport that serves Bari and the wider Puglia region. It sits outside the city, a short ride from the centre, and the usual ways in are the shuttle bus, the local rail link and taxis from outside arrivals. Allow time at the other end too: London has five airports, and if your return leaves from a different one than you flew out of, plan that transfer. Baggage reclaim at Palese is quick outside the peak summer weekends, when several flights land close together.

Country facts: Wikidata

• Check which London airport your fare leaves from, because the city has five and they are far apart.
• Add the cost of cabin and checked baggage on the low-cost carriers before you compare fares.
• Make sure a connecting itinerary is booked on one ticket, so a missed leg does not leave you stranded.
• Carry a valid passport or identity card for Italy and check the entry rules that apply to you.
• Book early for high summer, when demand from Puglia pushes fares up.
• Confirm that your return lands at the same London airport you departed from.
