Traveling Like a Boss: Tips on Booking Your Next Flight Online

If you’re planning your next getaway or if you’re packing for a business meeting a thousand miles from where you live, then the following tips may help you book a cheap flight online.

  1. Buy early or buy late During peak travel periods, booking reservations late may cost you to lose the game. Travel tickets usually go up two weeks before the actual flight. So you better reserve your ticket before this deadline. Also, if you’re planning to fly internationally, then it is suggested that you make the call three to six months in advance. But say you weren’t able to do this. You could just wait at the very last minute to buy the tickets when airlines lower the prices for failure to fill their planes. Although there’s a high risk you won’t be able to get one. 
  2. Keep your searches top secret Have you noticed the flight price change after searching it a few times? It’s true that flight price changes in most websites based on the cookies in your browser. You may counter this by searching for flights in incognito or private browsing. In Google Chrome or Safari, incognito is enabled by hitting Command (or Control if using PC), Shift, “N”. For Firefox, hit Command, Shift, “P”.
  3. Keep looking You may find a good deal the first time you hit the search button, but more often than not, there are still better deals you have not seen yet so keep shopping around. Visit known booking sites with good reviews and you are sure to find the cheapest of them all.
