Correction / Sep 28, 2026

A figure in this report was wrong

Every figure in this report now counts only fares on days the airline schedules a nonstop. Until 28 September 2026 our fare source also returned itineraries with a change of plane under each nonstop route, and we counted them. So some lows this week were for trips that were not nonstop. A reader found it on Boston to Terceira, which has one nonstop a week. We recomputed the figures on this page from the airline's own timetable.

The figure above is left as published, unchanged.

The other islands, and the seasonal routes

Frankfurt, Barcelona and Paris are seasonal. Out of season they record nothing, and that is expected rather than a fault.

Methodology

How these numbers are made

Each figure is the lowest fare we recorded during the window shown, for economy, one adult, on departures that had not already flown when the week closed. It is not the lowest fare that was purchasable at every moment of the week.

The full methodology covers the cache, the schedule, the currency and the known gaps.
