Be flexible with your dates and destination<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you only take one piece of advice away from this article, let it be this tip! Most people search for flights after having already decided on their dates \u2014 but this is a surefire way to find airfare prices at their highest.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you want to save some major moola, choose your destination first, and then play around with dates to see what months or days are cheapest. To get an idea of what dates will be least expensive, head to Skyscanner, type in your departure and arrival cities, and then hit the \u201ccheapest month\u201d button to explore your options.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You\u2019ll save even more if you\u2019re willing to be flexible with both your dates <em>and<\/em> your destination. Luckily, Momondo, Google Flights, and Skyscanner all allow you to compare several destinations at once so you can find the cheapest possible flights.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On Skyscanner, you can use the site\u2019s handy flights to \u201ceverywhere\u201d search function to scope out the cheapest airfare from your departure airport to destinations around the world.<\/p>\n\n\n<div>\r\n<hr style=\"width: 100px; height: 2px; border: 0; background-color: #222; margin-left: 0; opacity: 1\" >\r\n<p style=\"margin-top: 1em;\"><em>See Also: <\/em><strong><a href=\"\/days-to-come\/travel-post-covid-heres-what-you-need-to-know\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Travel Post-COVID: Here\u2019s What You Need to Know<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\r\n<hr style=\"width: 100px; height: 2px; border: 0; background-color: #222; margin-left: 0; opacity: 1\" ><\/div>\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" data-src=\"\/days-to-come\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Skyscanner-min-1024x683.png\" alt=\"Screenshot of Skyscanner home page everywhere search\" class=\"wp-image-31291 lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.tourradar.com\/days-to-come\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Skyscanner-min-1024x683.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.tourradar.com\/days-to-come\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Skyscanner-min-900x600.png 900w, https:\/\/www.tourradar.com\/days-to-come\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Skyscanner-min-600x400.png 600w, https:\/\/www.tourradar.com\/days-to-come\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Skyscanner-min-434x289.png 434w, https:\/\/www.tourradar.com\/days-to-come\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Skyscanner-min-868x579.png 868w, https:\/\/www.tourradar.com\/days-to-come\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Skyscanner-min.png 1080w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1024px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 1024\/683;\" \/><figcaption>Use Skyscanner&#8217;s &#8220;everywhere&#8221; search feature to find the best flight deals <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>4. If you can\u2019t be flexible, be creative<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Now, I realise being flexible with your dates and destination isn\u2019t always possible \u2014 sometimes you just have to be in a specific place at a specific time. If that\u2019s the case, remember that even the tiniest bit of wiggle room with your schedule can translate into big savings.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For instance, can you fly during the middle of the week rather than a weekend? Are you willing to travel on a holiday (like Christmas day) when people are less likely to be flying? Can you book an early morning flight or red-eye to save?&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These types of small tweaks may sound trivial, but they can help reduce your flight costs in a big way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" data-src=\"\/days-to-come\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/jerry-zhang-OnXvKZldSJ0-unsplash-min-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"Plane wing over clouds with sun flare\" class=\"wp-image-31288 lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.tourradar.com\/days-to-come\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/jerry-zhang-OnXvKZldSJ0-unsplash-min-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.tourradar.com\/days-to-come\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/jerry-zhang-OnXvKZldSJ0-unsplash-min-900x600.jpg 900w, https:\/\/www.tourradar.com\/days-to-come\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/jerry-zhang-OnXvKZldSJ0-unsplash-min-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.tourradar.com\/days-to-come\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/jerry-zhang-OnXvKZldSJ0-unsplash-min-434x289.jpg 434w, https:\/\/www.tourradar.com\/days-to-come\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/jerry-zhang-OnXvKZldSJ0-unsplash-min-868x579.jpg 868w, https:\/\/www.tourradar.com\/days-to-come\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/jerry-zhang-OnXvKZldSJ0-unsplash-min.jpg 1080w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1024px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 1024\/683;\" \/><figcaption>Play around with your route to score cheaper flights | \u00a9 <a href=\"https:\/\/unsplash.com\/photos\/OnXvKZldSJ0\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Jerry Zhang\/Unsplash<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>5. Experiment with your route<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Flying direct isn\u2019t always the cheapest way to travel, especially when it comes to long-distance flights. If you\u2019re willing to play around with your route and book different legs separately, there\u2019s a good chance you\u2019ll save a significant amount of money.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For example, if you want to travel from Los Angeles to Reykjavik, it might be cheaper to fly to London first, and then book the London to Reykjavik leg with a budget carrier.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Essentially, you want to find the cheapest possible flight to Europe (or whichever continent you\u2019re travelling to), and then take advantage of budget airlines (or even trains or buses if feasible) to get to your final destination.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you do end up booking separate legs, just remember to leave plenty of time between connections.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" data-src=\"\/days-to-come\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/eduardo-velazco-guart-Nukqi6L_5DU-unsplash-min-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"Silhouette of plane flying in the air with a pink sky and palm tree branches\" class=\"wp-image-31285 lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.tourradar.com\/days-to-come\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/eduardo-velazco-guart-Nukqi6L_5DU-unsplash-min-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.tourradar.com\/days-to-come\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/eduardo-velazco-guart-Nukqi6L_5DU-unsplash-min-900x600.jpg 900w, https:\/\/www.tourradar.com\/days-to-come\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/eduardo-velazco-guart-Nukqi6L_5DU-unsplash-min-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.tourradar.com\/days-to-come\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/eduardo-velazco-guart-Nukqi6L_5DU-unsplash-min-434x289.jpg 434w, https:\/\/www.tourradar.com\/days-to-come\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/eduardo-velazco-guart-Nukqi6L_5DU-unsplash-min-868x579.jpg 868w, https:\/\/www.tourradar.com\/days-to-come\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/eduardo-velazco-guart-Nukqi6L_5DU-unsplash-min.jpg 1080w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1024px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 1024\/683;\" \/><figcaption>Knowing the right time to book is key to finding great flight deals | \u00a9 <a href=\"https:\/\/unsplash.com\/photos\/Nukqi6L_5DU\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Eduardo Velazco Guart\/Unsplash<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>6. Know when to book<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Flight booking rules have changed in the era of COVID; since travel restrictions are still in place in certain parts of the world and demand is still relatively low, it&#8217;s likely you&#8217;ll be able to score a great last-minute airfare deal if you\u2019re planning to travel in the coming months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, as more people begin searching for flights later this year and into 2022, it\u2019s best to keep the Goldilocks principle in mind when booking: not too early, but not too late. That might sound a tad bit vague, but the sweet spot for deals usually falls between the <em>super-early<\/em> and <em>cutting it too close<\/em> windows.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As a general rule of thumb, it\u2019s best to book one to three months in advance for domestic flights, and at least two months in advance for international flights. Prices can vary, however, and you\u2019ll want to book at least three to four months in advance if you\u2019re planning to travel during peak times or major holidays.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These aren\u2019t hard-and-fast rules by any means, so if you happen to see a fare that looks too good to be true at any time, grab it as soon as you can.<\/p>\n\n\n<div>\r\n<hr style=\"width: 100px; height: 2px; border: 0; background-color: #222; margin-left: 0; opacity: 1\" >\r\n<p style=\"margin-top: 1em;\"><em>See Also: <\/em><strong><a href=\"\/days-to-come\/adventures-to-inspire-your-future-travels\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">25 Adventures to Inspire Your Future Travels<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\r\n<hr style=\"width: 100px; height: 2px; border: 0; background-color: #222; margin-left: 0; opacity: 1\" ><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Now that the possibility of travel is well and truly on the horizon, avid travellers are starting to indulge in one of their favourite pastimes again: hunting for airfare bargains.
