A holiday is a time to relax, unwind and spend time away from home. The last thing you want to be doing is making it more stressful for yourself by worrying about money. A holiday where you are able to stick to your budget will give you the most relaxing experience possible.

If you are trying to stick to a budget, there are still a number of things you can do. Think about going on holiday in the UK or going somewhere that it will be easy to reach. The Caribbean may be beautiful but it won’t be a quick or an easy option if you are short of money!

If you are fairly flexible with timings (you don’t have children and can go away in non-school-holiday periods) then you may be able to keep track of cheap flights and wait until there is an option to suit you. Sign up for email alerts and keep a lookout on sites for budget flights.
