If you are going on vacation or business trip, then you should take care of buying plane tickets. Airfare prices often seem exorbitant. To save time and money, follow these guidelines.
Instructions
Step 1
Remember: the sooner you decide to buy a plane ticket, the cheaper it will cost you. You should start thinking about buying air tickets one and a half months before the expected date of the flight.
Step 2
Use special search engines that will help you navigate a huge number of airlines, flights and ticket prices. Very often, with the help of search engines, you can buy tickets much cheaper than you could buy them on the websites of the carriers themselves. You can use the following resources to help save time and money: https://www.skyscanner.ru/ and https://www.kayak.ru/. These resources are intended primarily for the purchase of tickets for international flights.
Step 3
Be sure to follow the promotions and sales that are arranged by the airline companies. The most favorable discounts can be found in February-March, August-September. In addition, discounts and promotions on selected air travel destinations can be found throughout the year. To keep track of discounts and ticket sales, subscribe to the newsletter from a number of major airlines.
Step 4
If you are flying close, then use low-cost airlines (low-cost airlines). It is the low-cost airlines that offer the purchase of only a ticket, all other services (baggage, food, insurance, etc.) are paid separately.
Step 5
Plan your flight times for less popular dates. The most expensive tickets are sold for departure on Friday or Saturday, and return on Sunday. Cheap tickets can be purchased for flights on Tuesday, Wednesday or Thursday.
