Stop guessing and start saving. Discover the optimal booking windows for domestic and international travel.
The Secret to Cheap Flights
Timing your booking correctly can save you hundreds of pounds. While there is no magic day of the week to book, there are optimal booking windows.
International Flights
For international flights, the best time to book is usually between 2 and 6 months before your departure date. If you are travelling during peak seasons (summer or Christmas), book even earlier.
Domestic Flights
For shorter domestic flights, booking 1 to 3 months in advance usually yields the best prices.
Be Flexible
If you can be flexible with your travel dates by a few days, use the "flexible dates" feature on booking platforms to see when flights are cheapest. Flying mid-week (Tuesday and Wednesday) is often cheaper than the weekend.
