7 Simple Rules<br />

to Cheaper, Lower Air Fares<br />

Tip #1: Make your reserv<strong>at</strong>ion early.<br />

Many discount fares require th<strong>at</strong> you make a reserv<strong>at</strong>ion 7, 14 or 21 days in<br />

advance, depending on the fare. The best intern<strong>at</strong>ional fares often require a<br />

reserv<strong>at</strong>ion 30 days in advance. Making a reserv<strong>at</strong>ion as soon as you know<br />

your travel d<strong>at</strong>es increases your chances of finding a gre<strong>at</strong> fare. Think of it as<br />

fresh fruits, the airline se<strong>at</strong> IS a perishable commodity.<br />

Tip #2: Flying on a weekday usually costs less.<br />

Flights departing on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday usually offer the lowest<br />

fares. Fares are sometimes (but not always) higher on Monday and Friday than<br />

on other weekdays. S<strong>at</strong>urday flights occasionally have discount fares, but as a rule it’s<br />

more expensive to fly on a weekend than a weekday.<br />

Tip #3: Stay over a S<strong>at</strong>urday night.<br />

Most low fares require th<strong>at</strong> you stay over <strong>at</strong> least one S<strong>at</strong>urday night before your<br />

return flight. However, some fares may only require you to stay a minimum of<br />

3 or 4 days.<br />

Tip #4: Did we mention you should make your reserv<strong>at</strong>ion early?<br />

Airlines sell only a limited number of se<strong>at</strong>s <strong>at</strong> the lowest fares. When those se<strong>at</strong>s sell<br />

out, the price goes up! Which explains why there are different classes of se<strong>at</strong>s even<br />

though they all seem the same? Do note though, th<strong>at</strong> lower class fares often come with<br />

more restrictions.<br />

Tip #5: Consider an airport in the surrounding area.<br />

You may enjoy significant savings if you are willing to fly into nearby airports, especially<br />

if you are willing to stay with the same carrier on your next departing / return flights.<br />

Tip #6: Try an earlier or l<strong>at</strong>er travel d<strong>at</strong>e.<br />

To get the lowest roundtrip fare, the same (class of) fare must be available on both the<br />

departing and return flights you select. If the fare is sold out on either of these, the price<br />

you end up with will be much higher. If possible, consider flying on another d<strong>at</strong>e.<br />

Tip #7: Book your trip with Bonvo!<br />
