Before traveling abroad, the first thing many people think about is checking flight ticket and accommodation prices. Booking during promotions early on gives you an advantage. And booking far in advance often gives you the chance to get very cheap prices, but it doesn't always follow this formula. Sometimes, if you can't take leave from work, you might have to cancel your trip. When you try to buy a new ticket, it could be incredibly expensive. But here are 6 ways to tell you how to choose low-cost flight tickets online. Let's take a look!

Generally, you should book in advance, around 2-3 weeks before departure. However, avoid booking too far in advance, as you might miss out on promotions from various airlines, which often offer many deals closer to holidays. But everything depends on the destination and many other factors, which can cause prices to fluctuate.

It's normal that during important holidays and festivals, many people travel. And of course, if you book your online flight tickets too close to these periods, you'll definitely get expensive prices.

Statistics show that many people might not know that the cheapest days for online flight tickets are Tuesday and Wednesday. The most expensive days are usually Friday and Sunday because Friday is when tourists often start their weekend getaways and return on Sunday to go back to work on Monday. Other days have fluctuating prices.

Online flight ticket prices are constantly fluctuating. If you want to book online, you need to regularly check fares on airline websites. When you find a price you like, don't hesitate; book it immediately because if you wait even one day, you might not get that price anymore

Whether flying domestically or internationally, there are agencies that buy online flight tickets from airlines to resell. They all compete on price and try to promote the airlines they got at a cheaper price because they are easier to sell or offer better commissions. Try searching for flight tickets from various sources and compare prices again to find the truly cheapest place to buy them.

Booking separately usually gets better prices than booking a large group together because the number of cheap seats on each flight is often limited. Try booking individually within a group of, say, 15 people. You might get 4 people in the first zone and another 4 in the back zone. This way, you can get cheap online flight tickets together. However, you should check both individual and group prices until you get the best and cheapest option.
