Flight Tickets Booking: 5 great ways to book cheap flight tickets, save thousands..

Cheap flight booking tips: If you travel frequently, rising flight ticket prices can disrupt your budget. However, adopting a few simple smart travel strategies can save thousands of rupees. Using online booking platforms, offers, and choosing the right time can make air travel significantly more affordable. Here are some important tips. By adopting these methods, you can save thousands of rupees not only on domestic but also on international flights.
1. Follow the booking formula
Last-minute flight tickets are always expensive. Booking 30 to 45 days in advance can help you get the best prices. Airlines offer discounts for early bookings and only increase prices once seats are full.
2. Choose flexible dates and times
Flight tickets tend to be more expensive during weekends and holidays. Traveling on normal days like Tuesdays or Wednesdays can reduce prices by 20-30%. Similarly, late-night or early-morning flights are often cheaper.
3. Use flight comparison websites and apps
Platforms like Skyscanner, Google Flights, MakeMyTrip, and Cleartrip display prices from different airlines simultaneously. These help you choose the cheapest option. They also have a price alert feature that sends notifications when tickets become cheaper. Use these apps in incognito (private) mode.
4. Take advantage of bank offers and cashbacks
Many times, booking flights with credit and debit cards offers instant discounts of up to 10-15%. HDFC, SBI, ICICI, and Axis banks often offer offers in collaboration with airlines and travel websites. Similarly, wallets like Paytm and Amazon Pay can also earn cashback.
5. Search in incognito mode
Frequently, websites inflate prices based on your browser history when you search for flights. Searching in incognito mode will show you the actual and lower prices.
