Families may only just be thinking about the new school term after the half term holidays but there is plenty to look forward to this year.
With money tight for many families across the region, airlines are offering some cracking Easter deals out of the North East for anyone wanting to get away over the school break.
Education will be on hold from Thursday, March 28 until Monday, April 15, although some schools may use different dates.
All prices are correct at the time of publishing according to SkyScanner and are based on trips leaving from Newcastle Airport on the first Monday of the school holidays and returning to the North East after seven nights abroad.
