The Best Time and Place to Book Your Flights

If you are planning a holiday or short trip this year you will if not already be thinking about the flights. Particularly if you are looking at a package holiday it is important to weigh up the costs involved. With low cost airlines it is possible to make significant savings by booking the different elements of your holiday separately. It is worth comparing the price of the flights to the package holiday total prices.

This year us Britons do need to search around a little more with the unfortunately poor exchange rate for the pound. There are now many comparison websites on the internet that can help you quickly search and compare flights, hotels, package holidays and car hire too if you will be needing it.

Comparison sites will of course all work slightly different; some interfaces are more user-friendly and some pick up broader results than others. So it is worth running a few searches on different sites to find the flights or holidays that are best suited to your circumstances and meet your budget.

Booking in advance for low cost flights can also mean huge savings making it worth your while to book all parts of your holiday separately. If you haven't yet booked you could find a last minute flight deal too.

The point I am making is shop around for your flights. Many operators have sales on regularly, Easter Sale, May Day sale, summer sale, October Break sale, winter sale. You can pick up bargains, flights for as little as a penny plus taxes. Do be aware of the extras that aren't included in the flights and which the airline will attempt to add on even if you haven't asked for them!

Some will give you the price of the flight without taxes (which can be a shock when you get to the checkout page), others will increase prices if you want to take bags into the hold or check in at the airport. Extras that are offered are travel insurance and express check in and in flight snacks tend to be pretty expensive.
