I am looking at booking return flights (for 7) to Arrecife on Thursday 19th November, currently, Jet 2 seem to be the cheapest (ex Manchester which is where I ideally want to fly from) Question, does anybody in the know think the flights are safest booked now, or are potentially going to further decrease over the next 5 months (million dollar question I know) Also, can anybody tell me if Jet 2 allocate seats at check in, or if it's a mad scramble from the gate.
Many thanks in advance.

Hi David,

I would book now, As Jet 2 may increase the fares before November?

We were going to go to Los Pocillos/Matagorda in May but, The price of the Euro is still not strong enough to make it worth going.

The cheapest seems to be around 380 pp at the moment, And that is only for SC.

I have never known the prices reduce for the Canaries significantly.

We can get more for our money in Egypt so we might return again this year.

Or go to 'AlcoBenidorm' all inclusive 4*for what we would pay to go to Lanzarote on a SC.

Currently the Brits are staying away from Spain & the Canaries in large numbers obviously due to the Euro, While the Germans are enjoying it!!

Lanzarote is a lovely Island in itself, But it is becoming expensive.

At check-in you can make a seat reservation, We have never had a problem with Jet 2.

There's no time at the boarding gate.

Happy Booking!!

In my experiance, winter flights to the Canaries seldom drop in price.

Re seating on Jet2 - you can pay extra and book them online at the time of booking, or they will allocate on a "first come first served" basis at check-in
