Cheap flights from London to Port of Spain

Book this one a good three or four months out, because the decent fares go first and the connecting banks of seats fill quickly. April prices sit lowest on the calendar, and the calmer travel windows are September, October and November, when demand from London eases after summer. Midweek departures, Tuesday through Thursday, tend to price below weekend flights, and the December holidays push fares up sharply for family visits.

None of the carriers on this route fly direct, so the fare you see is for a connecting itinerary, and the price tag rarely tells you what is inside it. Iberia, Swiss, KLM, Air France and Austrian are full-service carriers that usually fold a checked bag into the fare, while JetBlue and Helvetic Airways keep the base price lean and charge separately for extras. Royal Air Maroc, Aegean Airlines and Air Canada sit in between, so read the fare rules before you commit.

Piarco is the single airport serving Port of Spain, and it sits outside the city centre, close enough that the transfer is a short road trip rather than a full journey. Taxis and shuttles handle the run into town, and there is no rail connection to the airport. Traffic through the city can stretch the ride at peak hours, so plan the arrival around the rush.

Country facts: Wikidata

• Check which of the five London airports, City, Gatwick, Heathrow, Luton or Stansted, your ticket names, since the cheapest fare may sit away from the big hub.
• Compare the included baggage on each carrier before booking, because the connecting fares differ in what they carry.
• Confirm whether your connection is on one ticket or two, since a missed link on separate bookings is your problem.
• Make sure your passport is valid for travel to Trinidad and Tobago, and check the visa rules for your nationality before you fly.
• Look at April as the cheapest month on the calendar, and weigh the December family-visit rush against the fares.
