From 19 November to 2 December, the sale opens to all customers. Booking.com then announces up to 40% off accommodations, 25% off car rentals, 20% off activities and 15% off airport transfers.
Booking.com is bringing forward its flight promotions: offers start on 11 November, more than two weeks before 27 November. They do not open to all customers from the outset.
From 11 to 18 November, members of the Genius programme can already take advantage of the flight offers. This window puts some travellers ahead of the rest of the customer base.
The stakes are as much about timing as about budget. According to Booking.com’s Travel Trends 2026 study, one in three French travellers (33%) builds their trip around a discount.
The platform presents these offers as an opportunity for price-conscious travellers to move their plans forward without letting their budget get out of hand.
These rates apply to those services. The discount level applicable to flights is not quantified in the information released.
Beforehand, Booking.com compared flight searches made from France for trips between November and mid-March with those of the previous year.
In this ranking, Abidjan records the strongest increase, at +90%.
According to Booking.com data, Tuesday is the day when French people search most for flights for this winter.
The Travel Trends 2026 study was conducted in January 2026 among 32,800 travellers in 34 markets.
The calendar is changing the deal-hunter’s reflex. The advantage no longer lies in a random click at midnight, but in early access, from 11 November for Genius members.
