Planning for a vacation? Need to attend a business event abroad? Juggling with dozens of airfare booking websites and still not sure how to grab the best flight deal. Well, it’s not a tough row to hoe. All you need to do is – be a little savvier, trickier and strategic.
Here are some effective hacks to book the best flight for your upcoming tour:
Social Media: Many airlines and booking websites offer significant discounts on their social media pages which are not reflected on their websites. So if you are using social media channels like Facebook and Twitter, do keep a watch for such offers time to time.
Sign Up for Best Routes and Airfare Alerts: It might not be possible for you check the ever changing airfares for different flights. Make a smart move by subscribing or signing up for flight fare alerts on online portals. You can also check out and subscribe for best flight routes in terms of time and expenses.
Reach Out a Travel Agent: Believe it or not, there’s a strong reason so as to why travel agents are still in business. These agencies have tie-ups with airlines and can offer lucrative deals on flights, thus saving you a lot of money. Try reaching out an online travel agent.
Buy Early or Buy Late: The best time to book your flight is at least 4-5 months in advance as ticket fares are less in the beginning and keep on increasing as the times goes away. However, last minute flight booking could also save you big bucks, but it is only possible if vacant seats are available. Airlines reduce the price at last moment in order to fill their seats.
Book on Cheaper Days: Weekend journeys are considered more expensive. Also, travelling during festivities such as Christmas, Thanksgiving, spring break, etc. It is, therefore, wise enough to book your flight for Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Thursdays, and a little before the festival days.
Mix and Match Airlines: If you are planning for a round trip, you can try to mix and match airlines. It is not always necessary that an airline with comfortable outbound flights must have a comfortable return flight as well. Combining two ‘one-way’ fares from different airlines could help you save significantly.
