Peak season:
The peak season lasts almost the entire year thanks to being kissed by the sun almost every day. In the peak of Summer you’ll find temperatures reach the mid 30’s so June to August might not be the wisest time to book your flight tickets if you can’t handle overbearing heat. You’ll also struggle to find cheap flights to Gran Canaria in the peak of Summer too as many tourists flock to the island. Spring time is a great time to secure cheap flights to Gran Canaria without having to fight for beach space, as is Autumn. The weather is still very warm and pleasant although you’ll find the evenings are a little chilly.
Off season:
Due to the weather always being warm and sunny there isn’t much of an off season however you’ll find the cheapest flights to Gran Canaria around January and February. Temperatures can still be warm although nowhere near the intensity of the rest of the year. There is a week somewhere around October or November of very heavy rain that lasts for the best part of all day. Avoid these months if you don’t want to risk being stuck inside due to the weather.

The cheapest flights to Gran Canaria will be found in the early months of the year however the weather is still warm enough to escape from the harsh Winter the UK will be experiencing. If you book your flight tickets in advance you’ll be able to find cheap flights to Gran Canaria around Spring and Autumn time with the bonus of less tourists crowding the streets and beaches. If you can be flexible with your dates then you’ll find the best priced flight tickets although you’ll struggle to find cheap flights to Gran Canaria throughout the Summer holidays. Sitting either side of the plane will give you fantastic views of the island as you approach.

Located approximately 19km (12 miles) south of the city of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, and 25km (16 miles) north of the island’s popular tourist areas, Gran Canaria Airport (LPA) or Las Palmas Airport – locally referred to as “Aeropuerto de Gando” – handles almost 9.5 million passengers per year. It is the Canary Islands’ busiest aerial hub and Spain’s fifth-busiest airport.
With a reasonable selection of shops and places to wine and dine, as well as warm and friendly services and an assortment of facilities, Gran Canaria Airport offers a pleasant experience. Clear days offer majestic views of distant mountains, however, breezier weather brings extreme tailwinds to the island, sometimes affecting flight schedules. In general, though, temperatures at Las Palmas International range from mild to moderate throughout the year, so you needn’t carry much in your hand luggage except for a camera, cap and pair of shades.
Like all tourist gateways, Las Palmas can get chaotic at times, especially during the peak months of July and August. However, staff do their best to offer assistance in terms of speeding up procedures and going the extra mile to help passengers.
