How to get the best deal on a San Diego — London ticket

Book your tickets at least 8–10 weeks before departure, as transatlantic fares from the USA increase significantly in the final weeks before the flight.
Consider departing on a Tuesday or Wednesday — statistically, these days are cheaper than weekends, potentially saving you AED 241.
Compare direct British Airways flights with Aer Lingus options via Dublin; a layover in Ireland often reduces the total flight cost.
Use the low price calendar on this page to clearly see the days with the lowest fares within your chosen month.
Check the included baggage allowance with Finnair or Iberia, as basic transatlantic fares often only include carry-on luggage, and airport fees will be higher than buying online.
