    The best time to book is the 25th December - the previous year. Cheap flights between about a week before Christmas until a week after New Year always go very quickly

    However if you book a flight FOR the 25th December you may find it's cheaper as it's hard to get to airports (no public transport, taxi's charging the GNP of a small nation) and people prefer to spend the day with family

    You'll never get a cheap flight for christmas in fact you'll be lucky to get any flight if you don't book early.

    When demand is high the only way for fares is up. The cheapest day to leave the UK to go east is late on the 24th/25th December.
