These are simply listed in point format to make it easier for you to read right through to the end. The tips are taken from a number of reviews I’ve written and I’ve picked the important ones.

Book in advance

Making an early booking is one way of getting a cheap flight. leaving your booking for the last minute will result in late bokking charges which are usually high. Booking early is always an advantage even as early as 10 weeks if possible..

Travel midweek

The week days are really the best times to travel that is between Monday and Thursday. After this it can get really costly. Most people tend to want to fly over the weekends making them peak periods, if you want cheap flights consider mid week flights.

Book indirect flights

One thing is certain – direct flights are pricey. This comes with the convenience of direct flying. If you are looking for the cheapest flights in the literal sense then direst flights are not an option.

Travel in winter

If you’ve ever taken the time to look at airfares during different times of the year you will see that winter fares are much cheaper. This is because winter is considered off peak in South Africa i.e. midyear since we are in the Southern Hemisphere.

Travel at night

Actually most of the flights are night flights. You will sometimes find day flights which are a big No if you want to fly cheap. However, it is always best to compare these flights just incase there is a discount being offered by the day-flights.

All this information including up to date air fares is available at any one of these. Do take your time to check out more resources on this site and on the web:
