A short, honest page about how this site actually works - last updated 27 September 2026.
Real fares, not estimates
Every price on HolidaySave is one we have genuinely found, not a typical or estimated figure. When a route’s price changes, the article for that route is rebuilt from the new figure - we don’t leave old prices sitting on the page once they’re no longer current.
No fake urgency
You won’t find countdown timers, “X people are looking at this deal right now” banners, or manufactured scarcity anywhere on this site. If a deal looks good, it’s because the price is genuinely good, not because a timer is telling you to panic.
No middleman markup
Every deal links you straight through to the airline, travel agent, or our booking partner to complete the booking yourself, at their price. We never add our own markup on top.
Honest about what we are
HolidaySave is a deal-discovery site, not a travel agent, airline, or tour operator - we don’t take payments or hold bookings ourselves, so we don’t carry an ATOL or ABTA number of our own, and we’d rather say that plainly than display a badge that doesn’t apply to us. When you book, you’re booking directly with the airline, agent, or our booking partner, and whatever financial protection applies to that booking (ATOL-protected package, airline ticket, or otherwise) is theirs to provide, not ours to claim. Check the protection that applies on their own site before you pay.
Transparent about affiliate links
- We may earn a small commission when you book through a link on this site, at no extra cost to you - see our Terms & Conditions for the full disclosure.
- Commission never changes which fares we show or how we describe them: the cheapest genuine fare we’ve found for a route is the one that gets published, regardless of which partner it books through.
No fabricated reviews
We don’t display star ratings or testimonials on this site. We’d rather show none than invent them, and we’re not going to put up review widgets until we have a genuine body of reviews worth showing.
Free to use
Browsing HolidaySave costs nothing and never requires an account - every deal, guide, and airport page on this site is free to read.
