You're planning to travel but expensive fares are getting in the way? Don't give up just yet because there are multiple ways of getting cheap airfares. Here are five secrets that might just help you get the best flight deals out there in the market. You'll be surprised that you'll travel to more places than you've first planned for.
Always Be Flexible. If you're looking for some really cheap flights, look into some aggregators such as Momodo, TripAdvisor, Skyscanner and Google Flights then compare the flight prices that are available to destinations all over the world. According to Thrifty Nomads, regular search engines would usually have inflated prices since they get cuts from the airline companies.
Be Quick. According to Scott's Cheap Flights, airline companies make mistakes so better act fast and book that flight right away. It doesn't take long for the companies to fix it once they discover that mistake.
Don't Book For A Specific Time Each Week. They say that Tuesday afternoon is the time when prices go down, however, that doesn't work anymore and it's just a myth now. Instead of waiting for Tuesday or a specific time of the week, check flights regularly to find the best prices.
Track Flights. If you've got time to spare, track the routes of your chosen destination on Google Flights or Kayak and see how the prices fluctuate. It might be time-consuming but it's going to pay off once you find the perfect deal for your travels.
Budget Carriers. Nowadays, budget airlines are trying to level up and are servicing fliers that want to travel long-haul. A good example would be Norwegian Airlines that offers flights between Bangkok and Europe at around $250 for a one-way trip. Air Asia offers one-way flights at $100 between Asia and Australia.
Now that you know these tips, you have no reason why you shouldn't travel. What's left for you to do is to go online and do your research on finding the cheapest flights.
