Travel Department's Black Friday Sale Is Here and You Could Save Up to €400 on Your 2027 Holiday
There’s a very specific type of fantasy that kicks in around this time of year. The school runs are darker, the kitchen is somehow always a disaster, and somewhere between the third load of washing and forgetting to defrost something for dinner, your brain quietly wanders off to a sun-drenched hillside somewhere in Italy. Or maybe a river winding through somewhere beautiful. Or honestly, anywhere that isn’t here.
If that sounds familiar, Travel Department has just launched its Black Friday sale early — and it’s worth paying attention to. Savings of up to €400 per booking are available on selected guided holidays for 2027, running from now until 30 November 2026.
Why it’s worth booking now
Planning a holiday in November might feel a bit premature but here’s the thing — getting next year’s break locked in now means one less thing to stress about in January. And with Travel Department’s Price Guarantee, once you book, your price is protected. No nasty surprises later. No watching prices creep up and wondering if you should have booked sooner.
Claire Doherty from Travel Department puts it simply: “You can secure your preferred 2027 dates and destination with confidence, knowing your price is protected from the moment you book. All you need to do then, is look forward to your holiday.”
Which, honestly, is exactly the kind of news you want on a Tuesday in November.
From city breaks to bucket list adventures
Travel Department covers an impressive range of holidays — European escapes, river cruises, sun holidays and far-flung trips to places that genuinely make you feel like a different person for two weeks. With over 30 years of experience, they take care of flights, accommodation, transfers and guided excursions, so you’re not left trying to piece together a complicated itinerary while simultaneously booking a dog sitter and reminding yourself to cancel the milk.
If a far-flung bucket list destination is on the wish list, now’s a great time to make it happen — that €400 saving could go a long way towards turning a “someday” trip into a real one. For those who want something closer to home in the meantime, there are still city breaks available for later in 2026, with options including Prague, Berlin, Budapest and Vienna.
