Hot to get cheap Italy holidays

Getting cheap Italy holidays is all about timing and flexibility. Travelling outside school holidays, especially in late spring or early autumn, often means lower prices and fewer crowds. Budget airlines fly to dozens of Italian cities from the UK, so compare destinations — Milan, Bologna and Bari often come in cheaper than Rome or Venice. And don’t overlook package deals either. Sometimes a flight plus hotel bundle costs less than booking each part separately.
