search sites for plane tickets

You can start searching for the plane tickets online far in advance for the best buy. There are many search sites online that will help you find the best option. For example, for planes choose Kiwi.com, Omio, Trip.com, Aviasales or Expedia. And try them all. There is no best one. There is the best one for you.

First, write your destination in the search window on the page. From where to where you want to go.

flexible dates

Second, it asks you about the dates you want to travel. You can put exact dates if you are sure about that. If you do not know yet put flexible dates. You can choose the whole month or just the date with option ± 3 days and so on. That allows you to change input data and search for the best option for you.

use filters for plane tickets

When choosing the flight it is important to see if it is a direct flight or with changes. One change is ok but more is a bit tiresome. Use filters during the search that allows you to choose also the maximum length of the flight as well as preferred times of departure and arrival. 

Sometimes after all the different inputs, the result is not what you wished for or not acceptable at all. Don’t get discouraged. It is not over yet. There are still some options.

low-cost airlines

One option is to try different airports nearby your location or destination. The airports with so-called low-cost airlines ( Ryanair, Vueling, EasyJet etc.). If they have acceptable prices for you next is to find local transport that matches your flight. And that of course before you buy any tickets. Sometimes it is much cheaper to combine low-cost tickets and local transport with a normal plane ticket. Depending on how far you live from the airport sometimes is affordable to go by your car and pay garage at the airport during your travel.

travel light

Good advice on how to reduce the price of airfare is to learn how to travel light. This means to take all you need and pack it in cabin luggage. That can save you a lot of money by paying for checked-in bags.

Still did not find an acceptable price? Many sites have a price alert option. Activate it and get notifications when the price changes.
