I have used to be able to travel to Australia, saving on accommodation and transport, suggesting tricks to find flights, accommodation and transport for everyone!
I was able to save a great deal by collecting memories that I surely wouldn’t have had with a more classic type of trip!
Remember that all the advice I will give you soon can be used practically in every part of the world, so … make it your own!
Air ticket: when to book it?
in reality is not always true and this also applies to Australia.
To find a low-cost flight you first need to consider several factors. The travel period, holidays and anniversaries that may coincide with your holiday, the sales strategies of the airlines will certainly influence the cost of the ticket.
From experience I can tell you what I learned and when I booked flights for my trips to Australia.
Traveling in Australia and saving on flights is very feasible.
There is a time frame in which the airlines lower their prices to be able to sell the most tickets. Usually you will find the best prices between 5 weeks, for domestic flights or short-haul flights, up to a maximum of 6 months before departure, for longer flights.
I’ll give you some examples!
I paid my first one-way flight to Perth, leaving March 1, 2018, for € 450, booking it for January 24, 2018.
Or again, Australia-Italy departing from Brisbane on 24 February 2019, making a 4-day stopover in Perth, paid € 435 with a reservation made on 12 January 2019.
Tricks that can make the difference when you book a flight!
I learned other tricks that I used about “when to book a flight” from VOLOGRATIS. He taught me how to avoid bookings in the morning, as the prices will certainly be higher: those who have to travel frequently for work do not look at the cost of the flights by themselves, and they usually book tickets in the morning, leave them dearer to them!
In the same way it is good to avoid booking your trip during the weekend, the more people check the price trend, the more they go up! I usually book them on a Tuesday night!
If it is possible then, try to be flexible with dates, or at least to leave during weekdays, in this way you can surely guarantee the lowest rates!
For the rest, eyes open to new offers, promotions or new routes!
Now that you have your ticket in hand and are happy to have saved a few euros, you can proceed to the next step: book your accommodation!
