Return flights to Portugal's Azores for £230 sound too good to be true—but TAP Air Portugal has them available across the winter and spring months. This volcanic archipelago doesn't get the crowds of mainland Portugal, which means fewer tourists and more actual peace and quiet.
The deal
Return flights to the Azores from £230 per person with TAP Air Portugal. Available September through May, so you've got a solid window to escape the grey UK winter or grab a spring break without the Easter holiday markup.
Why we like it
First: the price is genuinely competitive for a mid-Atlantic destination, and TAP isn't a budget airline cutting corners—you get a proper service. Second, the Azores themselves are underrated. Volcanic landscapes, hiking, whale watching, and a fraction of the Algarve's tourist infrastructure. Third, the date range gives you flexibility; September is warm, May is even warmer, and the shoulder months avoid peak-season chaos.
The catch? You'll almost certainly be routing through Lisbon, so factor in a connection. Also check baggage allowances upfront—budget carriers these days are notorious for nickel-and-diming on luggage.
How to book
