In fact, MoneySavingExpert’s founder Martin Lewis revealed that this week is the best time to grab a bargain for those looking for cheap flights.

Our guide below includes holiday deals for families of four during the school summer break.

We’ve also included offers for those travelling without kids or with small children.

Bear in mind that prices can get very steep once the school holidays start, so it’s worth booking a break outside these dates if you have this possibility.

Lisa Tyndall, from Skyscanner, previously told The Sun that parents looking to cut the costs should also consider flying out from different airports to save money.

She said: “Those in the north of England might find that it’s cheaper to travel to a Scottish airport to get a cheaper flight to their destination as the Scottish school holidays are different to the English schools and flight prices are likely to be cheaper out of Scotland.

“It’s also worth considering booking two single flights rather than a return flight with the same airline”

Here are the best deals we spotted so far:
