What Are the Cheapest Flight Prices to and from Malaga?

The best flight prices to Malaga that we have ever seen are from Luton to Malaga in April. They can be as low as 35-45€ one way. RyanAir and Vueling Airlines offer the cheapest flight tickets to Malaga. However, take into account that you may need to add luggage fees and airport tax to your ticket price, plus any additional transport to your final destination at the other end.

How can you get cheap flights to Malaga Airport?

There are a couple of smart ways to find affordable flights to Malaga:

  1. In high season, consider booking mid-week flights. The high season in Malaga stretches from May to October and the busiest peak is in July/August. Christmas, Easter and school holidays are also busy and expensive. If you’re tied to travelling during these periods, try to book midweek flights to cut costs.
  2. Aim to visit just before or after the peak months. The cheapest month to fly to Malaga is usually April. Early November and early May are also good times to find reasonably priced tickets, while the weather is still pleasant in Malaga.
  3. Book your tickets early. Around 6 months before tends to be a good time to find cheaper flights.
  4. Consider the time of day. Booking a cheap late-night flight is not always the most affordable. It could end up costing you a lot more in taxis or other transportation, as public transport doesn’t work at night in Malaga. Car hire companies close either at midnight or latest 2am, even in summer.
  5. Use the Skyscanner search at the top of this page to find the cheapest dates for your trip. Here’s how to do it: Once you have chosen a departure airport and date (this can be any date for now), wait for the search results to load. Once you’re on the results page, look for the blue link at the top left that says “show whole month”. This will tell you the cheapest dates to travel to and from Malaga during any month!

Before Booking Flights to Malaga: Things to Take Into Consideration

Before booking your flight to Malaga, take a few things into consideration. Booking that cheap, late-night flight could end up costing you in taxis or other transportation at the other end. Also, don’t forget to check our Bank Holiday & Local Holidays Page.

  • Hiring A Car?  If you are hiring a car, please note that the car hire companies do close, some at midnight and some at 2am in the summer months, so avoid the last flights in case of delay.  Be sure to read the small print on your car hire voucher. Also, don’t forget to add your flight number when booking your car.
  • Taking the Bus or Train? The last trains and buses stop running before midnight, so if you book a cheap, late-night flight, it could cost you an expensive taxi journey.
  • Collecting keys for your accommodation? Be sure of the times you can collect keys. Some apartment hosts have time restrictions when they’re available.
  • Reserve your seats ahead. Travelling is stressful and not knowing where you are sitting or if you will be sitting together as a family adds even more stress. Book your seats to avoid this agro.
  • Booking different airlines for your outbound and inbound journeys? Be sure about the luggage allowances, as different airlines will vary. You don’t want to be charged extra. If you need to contact any airline we have a page where we list all Malaga airport airlines and their contact details.
