A recent survey has revealed that the cheapest time to book a flight is 59 days before you travel.
The survey showed that booking 59 days before departure could save you up to 51%, with an average saving of 38%. For those heading to the airport in hope of a real last minute bargain, the results show this is not always the case with tickets being the most expensive on the day of departure.
Regardless to the different routes, distances and flight times compared, the cheapest flight prices found were almost two months before departure. Booking between 54 and 66 days in advance, proves to be the best time to book the cheapest airfares.
Many people get confused as to whether they should book early or wait for a late deal, but as this survey shows flight tickets are actually more expensive when getting very close to departure. Booking in advance by two months, proves to be the best option to both plan ahead and get a good deal, meaning more money to splurge once you get there!
