Cheap flights from London to Florianopolis

June is the cheapest month on this route, and the price calendar here covers September through April plus June and July. Florianopolis sits in the southern hemisphere, so its summer, roughly December to March, is peak season on the Brazilian side, and demand climbs over the New Year period. The European summer break keeps July busy. If your dates are open, aim for the shoulder weeks around June, and check midweek departures against weekend ones — Tuesday and Wednesday flights often cost less than a Friday or Sunday.

Nothing on this route is non-stop, so every option is a connection, and the airline mix reflects that. TAP Portugal, KLM Cityhopper, Air Europa, ITA Airways, Air Canada, Virgin Atlantic and Latam Airlines Brasil are full-service carriers, and their fares tend to bundle more. Portug, HOP! and Luxair are smaller regional and low-cost operators, where the fare often covers less — check what each ticket includes before you compare. Look at where each itinerary changes planes: some connect in Europe, others in Brazil, and that changes the length of your trip.

Florianopolis has one airport, Hercilio Luz, and it sits on the island itself rather than on the mainland, so you land on the right side of the water. Taxis and ride apps meet arrivals, and local buses run into the centre and along the island's main roads. Late landings need a plan: check that your transfer is still running and that your accommodation is on the island, not across the bridge. If you connect through a Brazilian city first, leave room between the legs — domestic and international arrivals do not always share a terminal.

Country facts: Wikidata

• Check which London airport your fare leaves from — Heathrow, Gatwick, Stansted, Luton and London City are not interchangeable.
• Confirm the baggage allowance on low-cost and regional legs, where the fare often covers less than a full-service ticket.
• See whether your itinerary is one ticket or separate ones — on separate tickets a missed connection is yours to fix.
• Check Brazil's entry rules before booking, including passport validity and any visa or vaccination requirements.
• Compare June with the southern-hemisphere summer months, and midweek departures with weekend ones, before you lock in dates.
