& Airport Information
Flights
Most flights between the UK and Lanzarote (Arrecife
airport) are on a Thursday and air fares tend to be
cheaper. This is the reason why the
rental prices for the apartment start on Thursdays -
although I am flexible with this if you prefer to fly on
an alternative day.

General Tips on Finding Cheap Fares
(Supplied by
Travelstoremaker.com)
-
One-way fares are usually half
the price of the most expensive round-trip fares,
which are valid for one year. The most restricted
round-trip tickets are usually cheaper than the
one-way tickets. Check both the one-way and the
round-trip fare for your trip, even if you're only
travelling one-way.
-
Sunday rule: One of the most
common low fare restrictions is the requirement for
your stay to incorporate at least one Sunday. For
example, for a round-trip New York to Miami a
passenger flying Tuesday to Thursday might pay $328,
but a passenger whose stay includes a Sunday would
pay much less - $188.
-
Advance purchasing: The least
expensive fares often require advance purchasing -
7, 14, 21, days etc. before departure. You should
keep in mind that seats for these cheapest fares are
limited. The earlier you plan your trip the better
your chances of getting a good fare.
-
Flight times: Airlines usually
offer early morning and late evening flights - right
before and after midnight when air traffic is light
- at cheaper rates. If your time schedule allows,
you might want to consider booking night flights to
save money.
-
Are both legs of your trip with
the same airline? It is important to book the
same airline for both legs of your trip. If you
select different airlines for your outbound and
return journeys you may not get any price showing at
all. If you do get a price, it is likely to be
significantly higher than the price you would get by
booking with the same airline both ways. It depends
whether the airlines have negotiated prices and
agreements and whether they have any kind of mutual
relations at all.
-
Check the restrictions: We
highly recommend that you read the rules carefully
before making your reservation.
