Flights depart from London Heathrow and London Gatwick airports, but some are so good they are worth the extra journey here in the UK.

For example, seven nights at the four-star Alcudia Hotel in Majorca on October, 8 is currently available for £508 per person on the Tui website, with flights from Cardiff, while in the British Airways sale, the same holiday is just £374 with flights departing from London Gatwick.

Eager sunseekers could see prices fall further if they are able to book by midnight tomorrow. With discounts amounts of £25, £50, £100, £200 or £300 available where a minimum spend is met, eligible prices will be adjusted accordingly on the website.

Some of the best deals we've found so far include:
