April offers the lowest flight prices at 32% below July rates, according to Eurostat 2025 data.

July and August are peak season with €185+ flights, but avoid June due to 14.5% higher prices than April.

Watch Out For: Hidden Fees on Sicily Flights

Wizz Air adds €14.50 for seat selection at checkout, not shown in initial search results—this fee appeared on my €112 booking in March 2025. Booking.com also charges a 14.5% "taxes and fees" surcharge not visible on the initial price display. I learned this the hard way when my €112 Wizz Air flight became €129.50 at checkout. Always add 14.5% to the headline price for accurate cost calculation.

Logistics: Airports, Transfers & Transport

Palermo (PMO) is 10km from the city center, with the Alibus bus costing €1.50 (20 minutes). Catania (CTA) is 7km from the city, served by the A2 bus at €1.80 (15 minutes).

Both airports offer rental cars starting at €32/day (Hertz, €32.50 for 3 days), but public transport is more cost-effective for city stays.
