Cyprus June - July Flights

Hi

Im wondering if anyone can help me. Im trying to find cheap return flights to Paphos, Cyprus.

Looking at departing from Saturday 27th June and returning a week later. There is the option to stay longer than a week if this would make it cheaper.

I would like to fly from the North if possible, Leeds/Bradford or Manchester. If there are any real bargains to be had I wouldn't mind flying from elsewhere.

Maybe two single tickets would be cheaper? Best I can come up with though is a return from Manchester for £220. I thought I would have been able to get flights cheaper than this with it being before the school holidays?

Any help / advice would be much appreciated!

Kind Regards

Gemma

    You can shave it down a bit if you look on Skyscanner and play around with the dates a bit but then you may have to factor in baggage fees on top, depending on airline. I think what you've found is fairly reasonable for Cyprus.

    www.travelrepublic.co.uk also have the same flight around about the same price.

    This isn't actually 'before the school holidays'.

    It is the start of the school holidays in Scotland and many, many holidaymakers from there travel to airports in the north of England for their flights as the prices are lower than they will find from Scottish airports at that time. So demand can be high and availability low even though English schools are not yet on holiday.

    You can try easyjet. They fly to both Paphos and Larnaca. usually its cheaper to fly to Paphos. You can also try holidayhypermarket. Goodluck and hope you have a wonderful time.
