Vacation types
There's a vacation for everyone
Whatever type of vacation you are seeking, you’ll find it here. Perhaps you’ll be basking on a beach, discovering a vibrant city or enjoying precious time with your family, let our travel guides help you decide.
All Inclusive vacations
Booking our All Inclusive vacations offers you fantastic value for money. With flights, accommodation, meals, drinks and most activities as part of your All Inclusive vacation package, you just choose where and when.
Adult-only vacations
No matter what you have planned on your adult-only vacation, sharing moments and creating memories to reminisce over for years to come.
Beach vacations
Whether you’re looking for powder-soft sands to sit back and tan, or the ocean for water sport adventures, getaway for a beach vacation. Listen to the sounds of the sea lapping the shore and kick back beachside.
Cheap vacations
Booking a good value vacation will help you to relax and enjoy your trip. Spend your days out and about, exploring the destination before returning to a comfy three-star hotel. You can even opt for a self-catering stay to honour your budget.
Christmas markets
Maybe it's the glühwein or maybe Christmas markets really are the merriest. Meander through Europe's most markets, in search of the perfect gifts and decorations. If this doesn't kindle your festive spirit, indulge delectable snacks at the stalls.
City vacations

Fly-drive vacations
Get the most out of your vacation and book a fly-drive vacation with British Airways. Our flight + car rental packages, in partnership with Avis, include all of the mandatory charges that you'll need to drive away and explore at your leisure. With Avis you also have the added reassurance of 24-hour customer support and roadside assistance should you need it.

Luxury vacations
Luxury comes in many forms. On the best vacations it’s the little touches as much as the grand gestures that make things special, like personalised service and hassle-free flights. When you book your flights and hotel with British Airways you can travel at a time that suits you.
Lakes and mountains
When the snow goes, the Alps become a sublimely beautiful summer vacation destination. Seek the summits in France, Switzerland, Austria and Italy with our guide to the best Alpine vacations up among the lakes and mountains.

New Year's vacations
Bring in the New Year with a vacation abroad. Party under the luminous lights of Las Vegas, watch Edinburgh’s skyline burst with fireworks or discover beach parties in Dubai. Dance and sing the night away in Nashville, or take a night cruise in Prague – the choice is yours, for a New Year’s Eve trip to remember.
Summer vacations
What will you do this summer? Soak up the sun on spectacular golden-sand beaches, hike up mountains or cycle down them, go to a music festival with friends or just eat great food, relax and be happy.
Romantic vacations
Seeing new places with the one you love is the most romantic way to make memories. Your time together is precious and time travelling on romantic getaways opens your eyes to the world and your loved one, for the best moments together.
Winter sun
Discover our top worldwide winter sun destinations, to get away from colder climates. Kick back with sunny days in the Caribbean and Indian Ocean tropics. Venture to the US, feel the heat of the Middle East or take it easy in Europe.
