5 Ways to Save on Airfare
Whether you’re looking for the best place to book airfare online or trying to figure out when you should book or plan your travel in the first place, here are some strategies to experiment with before booking.
1. Go Kayaking - Kayak.com is the best place to find the cheapest plane tickets now, according to BudgetTravel.com.
2. View fare history – You can use Kayak.com (and other travel sites) to view a chart of “fare history" to see where today’s fare compares in the cycle.
3. Track fares – If you’re planning a trip, track fares using Yapta.com to snag a fare at its best rate.
4. Be flexible – Moving your departure or arrival dates by a day or two can save a chunk of change, as can traveling in the off season.
5. Book separately – Especially when booking international flights, research to see if it’s cheaper to buy separate tickets for each leg of your trip, instead of buying roundtrip.
