With Christmas now behind us for another year, January is an excellent time to start planning your summer adventures.

As travel agents and airlines compete to win our attention with discount deals and added extras, the January travel sales could see sunseekers make big savings on their next getaway. From city breaks to long-haul excursions, there are thousands of incredible deals out there, if you know where to find them.

While some holiday companies launched their sales ahead of the Christmas weekend, savvy travellers could still save up to £300 on far-flung adventures, £250 on holiday hotspots and up to 25% on hotel stays.

As grey winter days turn our thoughts to sunny weather and cocktails on the beach, we've compiled some of best the savings to be made from the UK's biggest names in travel.
