With Omicron to contend with, this January is feeling even more miserable than usual.
Dreaming about palm trees and immaculate blue sea seems almost obligatory, but how about visiting them?
This month, travel companies have boosted their offers and discounts to let us get away for less.
So drop everything, get online and then run to your nearest airport or train station.
