Travel Tips: If you are also passionate about travelling, then it is natural for your mood to get spoiled after seeing the expensive flight ticket. But imagine, how would you feel if you book the same ticket at half the price? It will be fun, isn’t it? The real fun of travelling is when you save money on air tickets and with that money you can try the local food in a new city or do some adventure. That is why today we are telling you some such tips with which you can save a lot of money in flight booking.
1. Avoid expensive websites, do smart booking
Most people use websites like MakeMyTrip, Yatra or ClearTrip to book flight tickets, but these do not always show the cheapest options. Try a website like ITA Matrix. From here you can book cheap tickets by considering it as the Google of flight booking.
2. Choose the right day for flight booking
Do you know that flight tickets are cheapest on Tuesday and Wednesday? People travel more on weekends, due to which the ticket prices skyrocket. Therefore, if you want a cheap ticket, choose the right day and book the ticket.
3. Adopt incognito mode, the ticket will not be expensive
Have you noticed that when you check the price of a flight again and again, it suddenly increases? This happens because websites track your search history. The easy solution to this is – search for tickets in incognito mode and avoid looking at expensive tickets again and again.
4. Travel from small airports, avoid big expenses
Every city has more than one airport and often tickets are cheaper at smaller airports. For example, when you travel from Dubai to Turkey, the ticket of Ataturk Airport will be expensive. The ticket of Istanbul’s Sabiha Gokcen Airport will be cheaper. In this way you can book tickets cheaply.
5. Frequent Flyer Program – Earn points on every trip
If you travel frequently, join the airlines’ frequent flyer program. This will earn you points on every trip, which can reduce the cost of the ticket next time or get you a free ticket. I myself booked a ticket worth Rs 10,000 for just Rs 1,500 through HDFC credit card.
6. Try Skyscanner’s Explore feature
If you don’t know which destinations are within your budget, use Skyscanner’s Explore feature. It will show you the cheapest flights available around the world according to your budget. So the next time you have to book a flight, try these tips to save money and enjoy the real fun of traveling.
