Peak Season:
Easter is when tourists start to visit Crete, although the climate is ideal for visiting most of the year. April through to October is the main peak season, with big crowds of tourists booking flights to Crete then. Accommodation is also more expensive so make sure to book that and your flights as early as you can to get discounts. Late spring time and early summer are the best times to visit, with the weather not being too hot and cheap flights to Crete more available. It also means the beaches are less crowded and the weather isn’t too hot that you can’t do hiking activities.
Off Season:
Although the island is popular most of the year, from late October until April is when you’ll find the cheapest flights to Crete. It also has a magical feeling to it as less tourists visit and you can find yourself wondering a beach with very few crowds. Temperatures gradually decrease as winter creeps in, although if you bring a jacket you shouldn’t feel a chill too much except for early morning and late at night. The cheapest flights to Crete are available over the winter and with ideal temperatures makes Crete a great option for some winter sun.
Due to the year round popularity of Crete, cheap flight tickets are more difficult to come by. However if you book in advance you can find great deals and cheap flights to Crete. During the winter is when you’ll find the cheapest flights deals to Crete, but if you want to visit during the summer, especially if there are festivals and celebrations on, make sure to book at least a month in advance. Flexibility is the best option when it comes to securing the cheapest flights to Crete as well as avoiding popular times such as half-term and other school holidays.

The journey was good on the whole. We had bikes with us so the dedicated oversize luggage lane at PMI was welcome. The flight was great, staff friendly as always. The only thing that lets down the return flight is the immigration at BHX. The separate area used by Jet2 is far too slow, I think we queued there for over an hour compared to generally going straight through or a 5 minute wait with other operators in the main facility at BHX. I know you will say that it's the responsibility of the airport, Home Office etc, but you really need to apply pressure to get this sorted out.
