Make a short break feel like time away
Compare the full journey, choose a convenient base and plan a weekend with a little room to enjoy it.
A short trip benefits from a simple plan: one base, a few things you are looking forward to and a clear journey home. Start with your available time rather than a long checklist.
Compare the time around the flight
Look beyond the flight duration. Travel to the airport, arrival formalities, luggage, hotel access and the return trip all take part of a short break. Choose a departure and return that leave useful time where you want to be.
Keep your main plans close together
Choose an accommodation area near the places you most want to visit. Book one main attraction if it needs a date and keep the rest flexible. A tightly packed itinerary can turn a delayed train or long queue into a lost day.
Compare the complete short-break cost
For a two- or three-night stay, a transfer, bag charge or extra night can change the comparison. Put confirmed whole-booking costs into My Trip, leave unknown amounts unpriced and compare like-for-like rather than treating every displayed starting price as a trip total.
Pack for two days, not five
A short break is the ideal trip for carry-on only, which saves time at both airports. Check your fare’s cabin allowance, as some basic fares include only a small personal item. Plan the last day around bag storage so you are not carrying luggage between sights.
