Cat Astier (@catastier) and her friend Maxime O’Malley took the opportunity to head to the holiday hotspot when they found cheap flights online.

In a video on Tiktok, Cat showed how the pair spent their time, visiting bars, ornate churches and walking the city’s famous streets, picking up snacks along the way.

She captioned it: “This is your sign to book a £15 one day trip to Venice with your bestie.”

She claimed the pair completed the trip “all in 12 hours”.

The video has been seen more than 14,000 times since it was shared, with several people inspired by their trip.

Some were asking for recommendations on how they could do the same.

One wrote: “Any tips / recommendations from your experience? Me and my sis are doing this next week.”

Another said: “That’s amazing, how did you do this.”

A third added: “What time was your flight and back, trying to plan this?”

Cat isn’t the only person to fly to Italy for a day out.

After flying from Dublin to visit her long-distance boyfriend in Malta, Katie Nolan was shocked to see that a return flight home would cost £214.

Instead, she decided to take a five-hour stop off in Pisa, which significantly reduced her travel costs.

Katie said: “I was visiting my long-distance boyfriend in Malta. A flight from Malta to Dublin cost more than €250 (£214).

“But flying from Malta to Pisa and staying for five hours to see the leaning tower, eat pizza and then fly back to Dublin was cheaper.”

Elsewhere, Callum Ryan headed to Milan to save money on a pizza.

He said he paid just £8 for a last-minute plane ticket from London Stansted.

He then went to a local restaurant, where he paid just €8.50 (£7.50) for a margarita pizza and another €2.50 (£2.22) for service charge.

Adding that to the flight, it meant he paid just £17.72 – cheaper than a medium Domino’s pizza which costs £19.99.

Meanwhile, this mum flew to Lanzarote for the day and said she paid just £23.

And another woman revealed how she gets £10 return flights to go on holiday for the day across Europe.
