Im going on holiday to spain on the 20th may this year, does anyone know what the weather is like over there at this sort of time? Im not hitting the rainy season for exaple am i??!! As you can see i have absolutely no idea about the kind of temperature it will be, but i want it to be really hot!! Am i gong too early in the season to expect this? Oh and does anyone know anywhere where i can get really cheap flights? So far ive found return flights for �145 which is pretty good, is this the cheapest around do you reckon? any info would be greatly appreciated thanks!!!

Rainy season? you're going to Spain not the Borneo. Their weather system is not dissimilar to the UK except scaled up in terms of temperature, so winters are mild/rainy/overcast and summers are darn hot. In May it will be getting into hot season so plenty suntan oil. Cheap flights: it all depends on where you're travelling from/to but some of the budget airlines (easyjet, jet2 etc...) can do returns from around �100. Or you can chance your arm and get a flight on the day for next to nothing. I trust you're looking online for flights? http://www.monarch-airlines.com/ for example, can do Manchester to Alicante, return, 1 adult, flying 20th May (07:15) returning 27th May (20:50) for �75.70 which includes all airport taxes (the only downside is the unsocial flying times but you can pay a bit more for a better flight time).

I went to Spain in May last year, a place called Fennal 5 mins away from Lorrett De Mar and it p*ssed from the heavens every day! I am also just back from a place called Nerja, Spain which is 45 mins away from Malaga airport and we only had 2 days of sun! I would say that you can never be certain about the weather anymore and I would take plently of warmer clothes i.e. jeans and cardies etc. that' the mistake I made and ended up buying a fur lined demin jacket and an umberella!! As the for the airline darthvader's right it depends where you fly from. If you live in Scotland there's a new airline opening in April something like Air Scotland.com, I'm not 100% but they do dirt cheap flights to spain. I got my flights from cheapflights.com. Although I live in Scotland, I flew from Manchester to Malaga and it cost �150.00 each so your price is pretty good. Hope I haven't put you in a downer!! :o)x

The weather should be quite pleasant; sunny but not that hot. Definately bring some warm clothes for the evenings! It's possible it will rain a bit but it's unlikely it will do for the entire holiday. Flights...definately go for Easyjet...I booked my flight to Mallorca for 6th May this year for �27.50.
