Cheap flights from London to Dallas

November is the cheapest month on this route, and it usually undercuts the summer rush by a wide margin. Late autumn and the stretch from January into early spring are the quiet windows; fares climb again from late spring through summer, when school holidays and Texas heat push demand up, and spike around Thanksgiving and Christmas, when everyone flies to see family. Midweek departures — Tuesday and Wednesday — tend to be calmer and cheaper than Friday or Sunday. Book a few months ahead for summer and holiday travel, and you can leave it later for November, when seats stay open longer.

Several airlines appear on this route, and they fall into two camps. Easyjet is the low-cost option, with the slim fare that goes with it: a cabin bag, no seat selection unless you pay, and extras added at checkout. The rest are full-service carriers — Iberia, Air Europa, Brussels Airlines, Air Canada, Lufthansa, Lufthansa City Airlines, BA CityFlyer, Finnair and Republic Airways — where a checked bag and a meal are usually part of the ticket, though the lightest fare families on some of them strip that back. Some of these carriers sell a single ticket that includes a connection; others sell the legs separately, which means a delay on the first flight is your problem, not theirs.

Dallas has two airports, and your ticket decides which one you land at. Love Field is the closer of the two to downtown, small and quick to walk through, and it handles mostly domestic traffic. Dallas Ft Worth is the larger field, further out, and it is where the long-haul and international arrivals come in. Both have taxi ranks, rideshare pick-up zones and public transport links into the city, and the ride into the centre takes longer from Dallas Ft Worth. Watch the airport code on your booking — a cheap fare into the wrong field can cost you the difference in ground transport. If you connect onward, leave a comfortable gap for immigration and baggage reclaim.

Country facts: Wikidata

• Check which London airport you fly from — Heathrow, Gatwick, Stansted, Luton and London City are far apart.
• On Easyjet and the lightest fares elsewhere, confirm what baggage is included before you book.
• If your connection is on separate tickets, leave a long gap and expect to collect and re-check your bags.
• Sort your US entry documents and any travel authorisation well before departure.
• Choose between Dallas Ft Worth and Love Field before you book — transfer times into the city differ.
• Compare November with the summer months on the price calendar before you commit.
