Do you want a cheap plane ticket? Now is the best time to book
The holiday season is upon us, and everyone is looking forward to the next time they can get away. As the time without any Covid restrictions continues, many of us are planning to fly abroad.
However, with the looming cost of living crisis, we're all looking for ways to travel cheaper in 2024. Fortunately, lastminute.com has shared its top travel hacks that you can use if you want to save money on your next vacation. This information was published by huffingtonpost.co.
Saving money on a flight abroad starts with how far in advance you book it.
The company advises looking for and paying for your flight in the early hours of the morning. The Lastminute.com team explains that aviation systems are loaded in the morning hours, usually around 1 am, so you can often find a better price the earlier you book your ticket.
And sorry to those who aren't big fans of getting up early, but yes, in the long run, booking flights that depart in the morning will also pay off in full.
"Morning flights are often cheaper, especially during less crowded hours. In addition, earlier flights are less likely to be delayed (although this is never a guarantee) because you won't have a past flight log," explains Lastminute.com.
Book your flight on a Tuesday, Wednesday, or Thursday to avoid the rush of business and leisure travelers heading out for the weekend. You'll get cheaper airfare as a result.
