Dubai
If you're looking for guaranteed sunshine and a little touch of luxury, Dubai could be your ideal winter sunspot. Brimming with world class shopping malls and superb restaurants, it makes a great getaway for couples.
Treat yourself to an unforgettable spa experience at the Burj Al Arab resort or get stuck into a round of golf at Jebel Ali Golf Resort - there's plenty to do and the temperatures there remain balmy until mid-March.
The Caribbean
With tour operators like Sandals offering savings of up to 40% on Caribbean getaways this winter, there's never been a better time to sample the islands' exotic charms.
As well as its famous palm-fringed beaches and turquoise seas, the Caribbean offers a fascinating journey back into our own colonial past, with 17th century forts and plantation houses aplenty to explore.
Popular sunbreak destinations in the Caribbean include Jamaica, St. Lucia, The Bahamas and Antigua, all of which can be enjoyed at a lower cost than you might think if you're prepared to shop around.
Florida
A perennial favourite among British holidaymakers, Florida enjoys fabulous weather all year round and offers excellent activities for families.
Indulge your passion for thrills at one of the region's many theme parks choose from Disney World, Epcot Centre, Universal Studios, Seaworld and Busch Gardens to name but a few. If relaxation is more your thing, why not stretch out and soak up some rays on one of the state's many gorgeous golden beaches.
7 day winter sunbreaks to Florida start from just 500 with the likes of Thomson this year, so if you fancy it, why not see how much you could save?
Egypt
With uncomfortably high summer temperatures, winter makes a great time to visit Egypt - especially if you plan to do some sightseeing when you get there.
If you're not much into history, you'll be pleased to know that Egypt's not all about mummies and pyramids though. It also has a number of lovely beach resorts to discover on the Red Sea which offer a bit of exotic luxury away from the dust and tombs. Resorts like Sharm-el-Sheikh offer 5 star luxury at excellent prices - particularly at this time of year.
If you fancy going all Anthony and Cleopatra, you can pick up bargain all-inclusive deals from just 400pp with operators like flightsandpackages.com. Check out their website for the latest offers.
And don't forget!
Wherever you choose to go this winter, remember to book your cheap airport parking in good time. Booking online and in advance could save you around 60% - giving you more valuable spending money while you're away!
