This week, EasyJet plans to launch its “ultra cheap” flights for the upcoming summer. However, passengers are advised to get up very early in the morning to secure a seat.
Today (Tuesday), the airline is anticipated to announce the prices for hundreds of flights. To be prepared to score a deal when the fares are released, MoneySavingExpert (MSE) has advised anyone hoping to obtain a “super cheap” seat for the summer of 2025 to set their alarm for early in the morning.
EasyJet uses a “dynamic pricing” model, which means, that seats are the most expensive. when there is a high demand for them, according to the website. Which was founded by consumer advocate Martin Lewis. It can be challenging to forecast when flights will be the cheapest. Nonetheless, MSE claims, that the instant, they are released is usually the one when demand is at its lowest.
According to MSE, EasyJet will next be available on Tuesday, September 3, for flights between June 16 and September 30 of next year. The website, X (formerly Twitter), issued a warning, saying: “Easyjet tickets at a great price for summer 2025 will be available tomorrow morning. If past releases are any indication, you should probably set your alarm for tomorrow morning for just before six o’clock.”
EasyJet “saw about 18 million seats go on sale” earlier this year, most of which were to or from UK airports, according to MSE. However, the airline has not disclosed, how many seats will be available on Tuesday morning.
Money experts advise checking flight schedules around 6 a.m., but in the past, customers have mentioned finding a deal as early as 5 a.m. on release days. MSE further stated: Since seats are unlikely to be uploaded all at once, it’s a good idea to check early in the morning and if your desired seat isn’t available, return every ten minutes or so.
Customers will need to act quickly, though, as the price of the flights typically goes up, two or three hours after they first go on sale, according to them.
Speaking about the technique’s past successes, Mr. Lewis said they had been “very successful”. “If you want certainty of a cheap price it’s worth doing,” he said. The expert also suggested that you benchmark what a reasonable price is for that route in advance to determine whether it’s worth it. However, it’s much harder to predict, if a specific flight is significantly underbooked later on. Even so, you might be able to find seats even cheaper then.”
