Fixing now
- Smaller airports like Exeter, Southampton and Bournemouth don't have many prices yet. We're checking more flights from them every day.
- A price can move after we've checked it, so every trip shows when we last looked.
- BetterSearch is a lot faster, so your trips show up in a second or two instead of several.
- NewTrip pages now show things to do in the city with photos, and days out with kids sit right below them.
- BetterLists across the site now put the cheapest trips first.
- BetterOur London pages have a cleaner layout that matches the rest of Day Trips.
- NewThis page, so you can see what we change every day.
- BetterSearch now gets short names like "man", "stansted" and "nov", so you don't have to type the whole thing.
- BetterYou can see your trips loading, and the page takes you straight to them.
- BetterEvery city now shows its cheapest day first, with the other days one tap away.
- NewMore trips turn up now: days with 5 hours or more in the city, and trips that bring you home to a different airport nearby.
- NewTrip pages tell you if the city is worth a day trip, when to be back at the airport and what to expect at passport control.
- NewWe added pages for day trips from London to 12 cities, with every London airport side by side.
- FixedWe took out trips that aren't really day trips abroad, like UK flights, the Channel Islands, the Isle of Man, Iceland and Istanbul.
- FixedWe rechecked what a day on the ground costs in more cities, so the total is closer to what you'll actually spend.
- BetterPages open faster, especially on your phone.
- NewThere's now one page where you can browse every city you can get to and back from in a day.
- BetterAirport pages show the cheapest day trip from each airport and link to all the others.
- BetterWhat's On is sorted by weekend and month, and every event comes with a trip to get you there.
- NewChristmas market trips only show the days the markets are actually open.
- NewDays out with kids has its own row, and trip pages list places the kids will like.
- NewYou can search from a few home airports at once, or from any airport in the UK.
- NewTrips can fly out with one airline and back with another, which opens up more days.
- BetterDark mode follows whatever your phone or computer is set to.
- NewIf something looks wrong, you can tell us from any page.
- NewDay Trips went live: same day return trips from UK airports, with prices we've checked.
