Black Friday 2025 Travel Deals: Flights, Hotels & More (Part 2)
This article, “Part 2” of a Black Friday 2025 travel deals roundup, presents a selection of offers, cautioning readers that the deals are “fairly weak” and “real” savings aren't guaranteed. It serves as a guide to various booking opportunities, though many come with specific conditions and limited availability.
Benefits across the deals include significant discounts on flights, hotels, rail travel, airport lounge access, and attraction tickets. For instance, Trip.com offers up to £100 off flights, £50 off hotels, 8% off UK/European rail, and a £1 digital Railcard for a limited number of users, alongside 2-for-1 attraction tickets. Air Canada provides £50 off economy flights to North America and the Caribbean, while Ethiopian Airlines offers 15% off all destinations, and Cathay Pacific has £150 off per person to most routes excluding Hong Kong. Hotel savings are available through Melia Hotels, promising 25-45% off, with additional discounts for loyalty members and app bookings, and Hotels.com teasing up to 75% off on ‘Travel Tuesday'. For airport services, Aspire lounges offer 20% off bookings, and Aberdeen Airport provides similar discounts on parking and lounge access. Loganair also features a 20% discount on its network.
However, several risks and limitations accompany these promotions. Many deals are time-sensitive, requiring booking by early December, and often have specific travel windows extending into 2026. Availability can be extremely limited, as seen with Trip.com's flight and hotel vouchers allocated to a few hundred people. Some offers, like Trip.com's £1 Railcard, require subsequent purchases to remain valid. Others restrict travel to specific airlines (e.g., TAP Air Portugal-operated flights only) or exclude certain destinations (e.g., Cathay Pacific excluding Hong Kong). The overall sentiment conveyed is that while deals exist, they may not represent substantial savings for everyone, and careful review of terms and conditions is essential to maximize potential benefits and avoid disappointment.
