Affordable Travel Book In Advance or Last Minute?

To achieve affordable travel, should you book in advance or wait until last minute?

The answer can be either. For the most affordable travel book either in advance Or last Minute but not in between.

Book In Advance:
Often you will find that if you book quite a bit in advance you can get a discount or deal off the listed price.

There are specific times when booking in advance really makes sense:

When you want to travel during peak travel times. In this case waiting until the last minute will likely cost you dearly and leave you with limited options.

If you are booking a package holiday. There will often be incentives to book in advance such as X$ off per person or couple if you book by X date.

If you are not flexible on dates and/or destination. Waiting until the last minute in this case can leave you without availability on your location or dates.

Book Last Minute:
While there are certain times when you can achieve affordable travel by booking in advance, there are also situations where booking last minute can help you achieve even more affordable travel.

If you are flexible, waiting until last minute can really work in your favour. In this case you want to have a list of destinations and dates that could work for you. Keep your eye on packages/airfare/hotel (depending on your needs/wants), when the prices drops for one of your options, jump on it, it may not be there tomorrow.

Good luck and enjoy the adventure of securing your affordable travel.
