After two years of complete lockdown, the world has opened up once again and people are scrambling to leave their cities and countries for vacations as soon as they can possibly can their hands on flight tickets. It’s a mad rush of people finally able to breathe fresh air after months of being cooped up in their homes.

If you’re one of them, you wouldn’t be blamed. Just ensure to follow some tips for booking cheap flights; never overspend on your travel, especially at the time of booking.

Compare Prices in Different Portals

Before making a flight booking, especially for an international vacation, make sure to compare the prices in different portals – not only airlines but also the same airlines on different third-party websites. Some airlines will have offers on Website A and Website C, while some others will have offers only on Website B. Some may not be running any offers at the time of your browsing.

Start Booking Early

The earlier you begin your vacation planning the better. It is always advisable to book your flights at least 6 weeks in advance. Simple Economics would explain the reason: The later you book a flight ticket, the greater would be its demand, and hence, the price of the ticket will also increase.

Look for Budget Airlines

These days, there are airlines offering lower-priced tickets than the high costs of the traditional airlines. These airlines generally attract people looking to travel economically. You should try reducing the cost of your travel bookings in this way.

Search in Incognito Mode

Browsing in the regular mode tends to be a little misleading since they store previous search history and cookies. This will lead you into getting the possibly wrong information about flight booking prices. Hence, it would be the safest to go in incognito mode.

Travel in the Off-Season

Peak season travel is unadvisable if you’re looking to travel on a budget, since it is at this time that demand is high, and therefore, the prices of flight tickets rise. It is also during the off-season that there are not many tourists teaming to take photographs and crowd everywhere.

Check for Connecting Flights

Connecting flights, when compared to direct flights are more economical and less expensive. These are the best way to travel on a budget. Connecting flights are flights that go only a short distance. For example, if you want to try from USA to India, you might book a flight from Seattle to Delhi. You will not be sent directly to Delhi from Seattle, but might have to change flights once or more than once in between your trip.

Check for Family Deals

If you’re flying with your family, make sure to keep checking, time and again, for cheaper deals on the route you want to take. You can subscribe to the newsletters of airline companies or third-party websites hosting these companies (such as Indian Eagle) to be instantly updated about their deals.

These are some tips for booking cheap flights. A family vacation can be fun even on a budget, not necessarily at an extravagant cost. Choose wisely, make your bookings, plan your vacation, and enjoy the ride as it takes you!
