A British holidaymaker and his 19-year-old daughter flew to Lanzarote for a same-day beach trip on 11th November, spending just €112 each for a whirlwind visit that gave them six hours of sunshine on the island.

Aleksander Sikora, 41, originally planned to travel to London after his daughter Wiktoria mentioned she wanted to go shopping. Instead, he searched online for a more memorable day out and found inexpensive last-minute flights to Lanzarote.

He booked two same-day return tickets with easyJet from Gatwick for just £60 (€68) each, securing the flights only three days before departure. The pair travelled light, bringing only towels, their phones, passports, a portable charger, an empty water bottle, headphones and a drone.

Once on the island, Aleksander spent the afternoon relaxing on the sand at Puerto del Carmen, while Wiktoria visited several nearby shops. Their additional expenses included €17 for airport parking in the UK, €1.36 each for the bus from César Manrique–Lanzarote Airport to Puerto del Carmen, and just over €11 for lunch at an Asian restaurant.

The entire trip came to €112 per person, including flights, transport and food. Aleksander said his daughter loved the experience and is already keen to try another spontaneous getaway in the future.

Stories like this have become increasingly common in recent years. Back in January 2023, two friends from the UK made headlines after booking a spontaneous day trip to Lanzarote for just £23 each, spending nine hours on the island enjoying the beaches, cocktails and a bit of shopping before flying home the same evening.

Other viral cases include a man from Manchester who flew to Ibiza for under £40 for a five-hour visit, and a couple from London who once booked a €25 return flight to Milan purely to have lunch in the city centre.
