2026 Best Value Destinations
Biggest flight price drops
Where airfares have fallen the most
Our travel experts have handpicked the best value holiday destinations, combining experience and affordability from those seeing the biggest YoY drops in flight prices.
Airfare drops are making it easier than ever to reach these places
From Baku’s waterfront walks to Muscat’s coastal drives, these best value holidays1 are much cheaper to reach due to flight price reductions.
We’re likely seeing cheaper fares to these destinations thanks to a couple of key shifts: new regional routes and more frequent services across popular corridors. For example, increased connectivity from Riyadh and Jeddah to the Caucasus and North Africa.
And a quick reminder for the savvy traveller: flight prices move like any other market. When demand dips, prices often drop to spark interest. When demand climbs, fares usually follow. Timing, as always, is everything.
