Luton has built its name on low-cost, no-nonsense travel, with easyJet, Ryanair, Wizz Air and Jet2 all operating from here, it punches well above its size — connecting travellers to more than 130 destinations across Europe, the Middle East and North Africa without the sprawl of some of the bigger London hubs.
Popular routes reflect the classic mix you'd expect: the Spanish Costa’s and Balearic Islands are consistently among the busiest destinations, alongside strong demand for Turkey and the Greek islands, both known for good-value all-inclusive stays. If it's guaranteed sunshine you're after, the Canaries and Egypt deliver year-round, while the Algarve remains a dependable choice for a more relaxed, family-friendly break.
What sets Luton apart is how easy it is to get to and through — the airport sits well for North London, Bedfordshire and Hertfordshire, with a fast rail link straight into the city, and its compact size means less time spent navigating a sprawling terminal before your flight. For travellers who want their holiday to start the moment they leave home, Luton is hard to beat.
