There is no better time to plan for your summer holidays than in the coldest months of the year. When the chilly weather sets in, looking ahead to a sunny, far-flung destination can be just what we need to get us through those dark and dingy winter days. Being organised and booking your summer holiday early is also a smart decision from a practical point of view. Learn why you should book a singles holiday abroad for summer 2024 right now.
Booking early means you get the best deals
When you decide to book your summer singles holiday early, you give yourself access to the best deals. If you wait too long, you risk the holiday you really want becoming booked up, or those tantalising early bird offers expiring.
It can be tempting to wait a bit, but the risk isn’t always worth the reward. Sure, there can be some great last-minute deals available, but the choices are limited. If there is a beach resort destination you really want to visit or a city break activity you love the sound of, it’s better to capitalise now so you don’t miss out.
For example, if a holiday for singles is how you want to spend your next summer break, take a look at our early booking offers. You can find amazing deals giving you money off on great resorts, destinations, and hotels.

The widest range flights are available
By deciding to book your summer holiday early, you also open yourself up to the widest range of flights. Of course, with your holiday, you want all to go as perfectly and stress-free as possible. Getting the right flights organised is a big part of that.
If you have a desired departure date or a preference for what time of day you would like to leave the UK, give yourself the best chance of securing the right flights by booking well in advance. Don’t risk spoiling the amazing destination you’ve booked because you could only get flights in the middle of the night.
Arrive when you want to and get your holiday off to the right start. This will allow you to relax and settle into your resort in your own time, free from travel exhaustion.
Get your hands on the best hotel rooms
Not all hotel rooms are created equal – for example, some will have sea views, and others will have private balconies. Whatever your preference is, give yourself the best chance of getting the room you want by planning your summer holiday early.
If the difference between a 10/10 holiday and an 8/10 holiday is getting the room you want, then it makes sense to get organised and book before it gets snapped up. With a little bit of organisation, you can find yourself arriving at a lovely hotel room that ticks all your boxes.
If you leave things to the last minute, you decrease your chances of getting the best hotel rooms and will have to accept whatever is left. You might get lucky and have a room that is exactly what you wanted, but there is a good chance the very best rooms will have been booked up months ago.

You will have something exciting to look forward to
One of the very best benefits of booking your summer holiday now is that you have something truly exciting to look forward to throughout the winter and spring to come.
Having something as fun as a holiday planned can be a real morale booster, helping to keep us in a positive and happy mindset. Even if work is a chore or the weather is getting you down, you can look forward to your summer holiday that is approaching.
You can start to make exciting plans, look into activities and excursions, research the restaurants you might want to visit and think about what you might like to pack! The dreary winter months get the best of us if we let them, so having a bit of light at the end of the tunnel can be the perfect antidote.
Even if you know that you want to go away, there is nothing better than having something concrete already booked. That way, you can visualise more clearly what you can look forward to once summer arrives.

Spread the cost
Booking holidays early helps you capitalise on the best deals, but it also helps you afford the trip in the first place. By being organised, you can plan to spread the cost of your holiday over the coming months, putting aside a bit of money each month rather than one lump sum.
This can help you better justify the purchase and make less of a dent in your bank account all at once. Think of the price of your holiday and then divide that by the number of months between and when it begins. It’s probably a figure that’s a lot more desirable than the total figure.
Planning ahead like this and spreading out the cost of your summer payment can help make that trip even more appealing, without breaking the bank.
