Cheap flights from Newcastle to Florence

Florence sees shorter days in winter, but December offers lower prices if you do not mind cooler weather. Spring and autumn bring milder conditions across the Italian region while still sitting outside peak holiday periods. Book midweek departures when possible to avoid weekend surcharges that appear on most carrier schedules.

Full-service carriers like KLM Royal Dutch Airlines, British Airways and Aer Lingus include checked baggage and meals in their standard fares. Low-cost operators such as Easyjet, Jet2 and Eurowings charge separately for everything beyond a small cabin bag. HOP! connects passengers through its French network before they reach Italy. Each carrier uses different routing patterns between Newcastle and Peretola.

Peretola sits close to Florence city centre compared with other Italian airports. You can reach the historic centre by taxi or shuttle in roughly twenty minutes depending on traffic. The airport handles both domestic and international flights for visitors heading into Tuscany. Consider how late your flight arrives before deciding between ground transport options.
