It might seem far away in this cold weather, but it could be time to think about planning a summer holiday. With July and August the most popular times for Brits to jet off, when\u2019s the best time to book a summer holiday?<\/p>\n

Yasmin Pekel, director of Blue Cruise, has shared her top tips for booking a summer holiday and when she thinks the best and cheapest time to book.<\/p>\n

Yasmin said: \u201cNext summer might seem like a long way away, but I typically recommend starting to think about your June, July or August holiday now, and booking in early January.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn January, holiday sales are normally in full spring, meaning that discounts are easily accessible. Many travel providers, including airlines and hotels, also offer early booking discounts.\u201d<\/p>\n

After Christmas, many airlines and hotel brands offer deals for holidaymakers so January could be a great time to score a bargain break.<\/p>\n

Yasmin added: \u201cBy booking early, you\u2019ll have a better chance of securing your desired accommodation and flights.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs summer approaches, popular destinations and accommodations may fill up quickly, leading to inflated prices. This is particularly true of sought-after resorts and trending destinations.\u201d<\/p>\n

Hotels in popular destinations could sell out, particularly if there\u2019s a special event or festival. This could be a sporting event, a concert or an annual celebration.<\/p>\n

Yasmin said: \u201cAirlines normally release their schedules and open bookings for the upcoming season well in advance.<\/p>\n

\u201cBy booking early, you\u2019ll likely be able to access a wider range of flight options including lower fares and better seat fares.\u201d<\/p>\n

Flight prices for popular routes tend to get more expensive the closer it gets to the date of travel, so it\u2019s usually best to book early.<\/p>\n
