Tenerife emerges as surprise summer value pick in Flight Tribe holiday check

One of the UK's favourite holiday destinations is pricing below Majorca, the Algarve and Rhodes, while Antalya offers the strongest value for flexible sunseekers

Tenerife has emerged as a surprise summer-value pick in a new Flight Tribe holiday check, with one of the UK's favourite destinations currently pricing below Majorca, the Algarve, Costa Blanca and Rhodes despite concern about fuel costs and rising holiday prices.

Key findings
● Tenerife averaged £510pp, beating Majorca, the Algarve, Costa Blanca and Rhodes.

● Antalya / Turkish Riviera had the lowest average price at £493pp.

● Rhodes was the most expensive destination at £708pp.

● Antalya Area was the cheapest, averaging £453pp.

That makes Tenerife 14% cheaper than Majorca, 19% cheaper than the Algarve, 21% cheaper than Costa Blanca and 28% cheaper than Rhodes. Antalya was cheaper still, averaging £493pp. Holidaymakers looking for the best sunshine value may find better prices beyond the familiar Spanish favourites.

Phil Salcedo, founder of Flight Tribe, said: 'Tenerife is a real surprise. One of the UK's favourite destinations is currently great value for peak summer visits.

'The wider lesson is that Spain is not the only place to look. Antalya shows there is excellent value for anyone willing to look outside the traditional Spanish favourites of UK holidaymakers, while still enjoying a fantastic time away.'

The figures show why holidaymakers should compare across destinations before booking. Majorca remains a strong mainstream option, but it was not the lowest-priced familiar favourite in this check.

Rhodes sat at the top end of the comparison, averaging 39% more than Tenerife. The Algarve showed a mixed picture, with some lower prices but an average above Tenerife, Antalya and Majorca.

Departure airport also mattered, with the cheapest airport changing by destination.

Methodology: Flight Tribe checked summer 2026 package-holiday prices on 24 May 2026. The sample covered UK outbound package holidays for two adults, for seven nights across easyJet Holidays, TUI and Jet2holidays, using 237 usable price points.

The figures are an early price-panel snapshot, not a checkout audit or whole-market study, and Flight Tribe does not claim these are the cheapest holidays available in the UK market.
