A major study by consumer group Which? found that Tuesdays are the cheapest day of the week to fly out of Britain, and travelling midweek can save people a significant sum of money.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

For outbound flights Tuesday was, on average, the cheapest day to fly with the three biggest airlines in the UK.<\/p>\n

Flights with EasyJet from London Gatwick to Alicante on a Friday were, on average, 35 per cent or \u00a328 more expensive than a Tuesday.<\/p>\n

Which? found flying on a Sunday was, on average, the most expensive day to return home.<\/p>\n

Return flights with EasyJet from London Gatwick to Alicante on Sundays were, on average, 45 per cent or \u00a356 more expensive than Thursdays.<\/p>\n

The study also revealed that as well as cheaper days, there were cheaper times of the day to fly, though this varied across different airlines.<\/p>\n

BA’s cheapest outbound flights were before 7.30am in the morning. However, outbound flights with EasyJet between 5.45am and 11am in the mornings were their most expensive.<\/p>\n

Richard Lloyd, executive directorof Which?, said: “With household budgets squeezed, holidaymakers will want to make sure they are getting a good deal on their flights.<\/p>\n

“We found that people can save a significant sum of money if they shop around and can be flexible, changing the day or time they choose to travel.”<\/p>\n

Which? analysed 1,174 flights in September from three London airports to three destinations in Europe – Dublin, Barcelona and Alicante.<\/p>\n

It tracked the prices, in August, for one person with one piece of checked-in luggage on a return flight.<\/p>\n
