Cheap flights from London to Lanzarote

November is the cheapest month on this route, sitting between the half-term rush and the Christmas build-up. Fares climb through the school holidays and peak in summer, when the island fills with families, and again around Christmas and New Year. Midweek departures from London usually cost less than weekend ones, and the first and last flights of the day drop first. Book a few months ahead for summer and the school breaks; for a quiet November trip you can often leave it later and still find a seat.

Low-cost carriers do most of the work here: Easyjet, Ryanair, Jet2, Wizz Air UK, Wizz Air Malta and Vueling Airlines all sell seats between London and Lanzarote, and TUI Airways flies the route as part of its holiday packages. British Airways and BA EuroFlyer are the full-service choices, with a cabin bag, a seat and usually a drink included in the fare. Mokulele Flight Service shows up on some connecting itineraries rather than as a direct option. On the low-cost tickets you pay extra for a checked bag, a chosen seat and food, so compare the total rather than the headline fare.

Lanzarote has a single airport, Lanzarote Airport, on the east of the island near Arrecife, and it handles every flight from London. The terminal is compact and quick to walk through. Where you stay decides the transfer: the island's resorts are strung along the coast, so some are a short drive from the runway and others much further. Buses, shared shuttles and taxis meet the arrivals hall, and hire cars are collected nearby. If you land late, sort your transfer before you fly, because options thin out after the last planes come in.

Country facts: Wikidata

• Check which London airport your fare leaves from, since Heathrow, Gatwick, Luton, Stansted and London City are not interchangeable.
• Add the cost of a checked bag on Easyjet, Ryanair, Jet2, Wizz Air or Vueling before you compare fares.
• If a connection is involved, make sure both legs sit on one ticket so a delay is covered.
• Carry a valid passport and check the entry rules for Spain before you travel.
• Book early for summer, Christmas and the school breaks, and look at November if the price matters most.
• Sort your transfer from Lanzarote Airport to your resort if you land after dark.
