Cheap Holidays From Scotland 2024/2025

Holiday Destinations From Scotland

There are loads of destinations you can enjoy from Scottish cities, ranging from UK cities to longhaul beaches. Here are a few of our favourite locations:

Tenerife, Spain

Tenerife regularly features on holidaymakers hit lists because of the excellent year round sunshine it provides. Flight inclusive holidays from most of the main Scottish airports means the Costa Adeje and Playa de las Americas are just a few hours away, no matter what time of year you go, so it's great for some much needed winter sun.

Santorini, Greece

The stunning island of Santorini is the perfect escape for couples and families to relax, unwind and enjoy some wonderful Greek cuisine. From beautiful views on the hilltop to a relaxing lunch by the lapping sea, you can fly with indirect flights from Scotland. Sadly there are no direct flights from Scotland to Santorini.

Dubai, United Arab Emirates

With Emirates offering direct flights from Edinburgh and Glasgow to Dubai, this fantastic city is easy to get to, even in business class. Enjoy the soft sandy beaches, rooftop pools, plenty of shopping and so much more on a city break or holiday to Dubai from Glasgow or Edinburgh.

Las Vegas, USA

There aren't any direct flights to Las Vegas from Scotland, however, there are a number of connecting flights through the US and Europe, helping you escape to Sin City. This absolute mecca in the middle of the desert should definitely be on your bucket list.

Holiday Types

Last Minute Holidays

If you can be flexible with your destination, a last minute holiday could be a great option, especially if you don't mind when you travel. This can help you save a great deal of money with things like cancellation holidays too. The same goes for your departure airport too. If you're able to fly from both Edinburgh airport and Glasgow airport, you'll have a good mix of low cost airlines and destinations to choose from, meaning more chance of snapping up a cheap holiday from Scotland.

All Inclusive

If you're often worried about saving money and spending too much while on holiday, then an all inclusive holiday might be best for you and your family. Allowing you to book and pay in advance, all inclusive package holidays mean most (if not everything) is included, so you don't spend money while away. If you're taking the family, the kids can enjoy snacks and ice creaams throughout the day and sometimes even have a dedicated kids buffet section at dinner, although sometimes it is nice to venture out of the hotel for a meal or two in a local restaurant. Free child place holidays may be available too to help you save even more money.

Ski Holidays

With winter destinations like Chambery, Geneva and Salzburg, ski holidays are definitely possible (and a much better chance of snow than back home). It's easiest to book a package through companies like Crystal Ski holidays, or speak to your local travel agent like Barrhead Travel.
