Tell this website when you’re free and it’ll give you the cheapest flights from your city

This is GENIUS.

Not yet booked your summer holiday?

If cost is your main concern and you’re not too fussy about where you go, don’t even look at flights until you’ve been to Escape.

This travel website lets you find the cheapest flights possible for whatever dates you’re free.

It’s ideal for those of us who have to take holidays from work at a specific time or anyone who gets a surprise few days off and wants to head away.

Just put in where you are, when you want to go and watch the suggestions for flights roll in.

You can fiddle with settings to let you factor in things like more specific areas to search, weather, how popular a destination is with other travellers and whether you’ll need a visa to go somewhere.

Escape’s simplicity not only means it’s super easy to use but that it’s also very visually pleasing.

We tried it out, checking for one-way tickets from Dublin for the upcoming Easter weekend.

It gave us options for flights to Naples from €64, Milan from €112, Oslo from €118 and New York from €231.

Like Skyscanner and other flight comparison websites, once you’ve chosen your flights you’re taken through to the airline’s own site to book.

Looks like planning trips away just got a whole lot easier.
