Christmas flights to Gran Canaria - Best time to book???????

Hi everyone,

My company have recently purchased a holiday home in Gran Canaria for staff to use free of charge, and I was thinking of going with my boyfriend for the weekend of 16th-19th December. Due to financial circumstances, we will only be able to book flights in October, but I was wondering when / if the flight prices go up and when is the cheapest time to book flights for around the Christmas period?

Thanks!

    The outbound flight will probably just go up and up because of demand for those who want to go for 2 weeks.
    The inbound has less demand so it is difficult to say.

    I wouldn´t say anytime is a good time to book flights personally! I have found that more often than not I have booked early and the price has come down after or I have booked late and the price has been higher.
    I have still found that from the N.West area though Ryanair have become the cheapest and that is probably why i am on my 5th trip out here now :j
