How we work this out

Worth the bother is worked out from the same facts every time: how much warmer, drier and sunnier it usually is there than in Ireland that month, how long the flight is, how good the place is, whether something’s on and, when we have enough fares for the route, whether the month is unusually dear or cheap. We use the usual weather for the month so one freak day can’t swing it. When you tell us what you’re after (snow, Christmas markets, walking and so on), the weather part asks how well the usual weather fits that, not just how warm it is. Nobody can pay to change a score, and plenty of places score low on purpose.

Knock to Tenerife, in short

The flight takes about 4h 20m.

Flying from Knock

The honest airport tips

  • Ireland West Airport Knock sits on a hill, so fog can delay flights now and then. Check before you set off, especially if you're driving a distance.
  • Many routes fly only once or twice a week, so double-check your days. Miss it and it's a long wait for the next one.
  • Book parking online before you go.
