It's the time of year that flights shoot up in price ahead of the summer holidays, but financial experts have shared a way to get your hands on cheap tickets later this year.
Founded by financial expert Martin Lewis, Money Saving Expert regularly shares news and advice for households to cut costs in a range of areas. The website explained how you can book the cheapest flights with easyJet tomorrow in its latest newsletter.
EasyJet releases several batches of tickets through the year. The next round of flights covering December 1 to March 23, 2024 will be released on Thursday, March 9 and can be purchased on the easyJet website.
MSE explained: "EasyJet's prices are fluid and move based on demand for any particular flight. They're usually priced cheaply when released, but this can change quickly depending on how many people are booking.
"So if you can pounce when they're launched, you're often getting the very cheapest deal."
While easyJet has not announced an exact time for the sale, MSE expects them to be available from around 6am, so it's best to check the website first thing.
It is possible that the airline may not charge the cheapest prices at this time if they decide to break conventions or if there are high demands for flights. But MSE reports that booking on release days has worked well in the past.
The saving experts recommend using common sense and urge customers to do price comparisons with other companies.

Daniel D'Addario Chief TV Critic The story of Kim Philby is perhaps too good to make up. The British spy, a double agent for Moscow, operated at the highest levels of the intelligence community; his ability to disseminate information to the Soviet Union, to which he eventually defected, is proof, perhaps, of the power of personal charm and erudition to cover over what’s lying in plain sight. That’s the powerfully told story of “A Spy Among Friends,” which streamed on ITVX in the United Kingdom last year and which now arrives on nascent streamer MGM+. Guy Pearce plays Philby, who has at the series’ outset been a valued Soviet source for many years; likely his closest friend in tradecraft, Nicholas Elliott (Damian Lewis), must get a confession from him. We see the pair’s relationship over time in layered flashbacks, adding context and understanding to Elliott’s failure to nail down Philby.
