Either way, it means you’ll know the perfect time to fly your next vacation to get the best possible deal on your ticket price.
Select airports wisely
AI aggregators can not only help you plan for your next travel, but also compare all the related airports nearby to find the best one for you. In numerous instances, flying into a smaller airport near your destination may be less expensive and more convenient.
Consider Budget Airlines
Major airlines are not the only option for booking flights on these sites. They will show you all the different options, which makes it much easier to find cheaper airlines. If you have to transit, the shortest leg of your journey may well be cheaper if you change airlines and book a budget airline.
Buy Separate Tickets
This is a good way to spend less on your journey and is related to the previous tip. For example, it will show you different possible travel options and recommend the ones with the best price that are also quick routes. You can search for different types of tickets (single-ticket, multi-ticket, cheaper airfares) and the results will show you which option is cheapest. It will often let you book them at the same time so that you don’t end up with multiple bookings scattered all over different websites.
