Prices for flights always fluctuates. It can be frustrating sometimes, especially for those who are on a budget. So how to make sure you get a cheap ticket? It is actually pretty easy, but you need to take some time for it of course. Check out these tips below:

Plan your trip well in advance

You need to plan your trip as early as possible and look for affordoble tickets well in advance.

Book the ticket as early as possible

This is a logical next step but often overlooked. If you have planned your trip and found the ticket, book it! Often you will want to think first, sleep on it and then you forget and later the ticket is suddenly way more expensive. Plan in advance and book in advance.

Promo tickets

Often promo tickets are offered several months before departure, I suggest to book them as soon as possible because promo tickets are way cheaper than regular ones and only available for a limited time.

Join a Travelling Community

By joining a travelling community (like for example tripadvisor), you will also receive info about affordable tickets and you can get reviews of places and hotels you want to visit.

Get the airlines newsletter or become a member of Utiket

You can also become a member here on Utiket which will have many advantages in finding cheap tickets. Also, be sure to get the newsletter of your favorite airlines as they will send you special deals by email.

Early Morning or Night Flying

The prices for early morning or night flight are a lot cheaper than rush hour flights so best to keep this in mind when you plan your trip.
