Are you one of those people that start planning your vacation but before booking your flight you wait a few days to see if the prices go down? New research is showing that is not a very smart idea. Usually prices will go up rather than down, “research — of more than 300 million flight queries over three months — concludes that between the day you start looking for flights and the day you actually purchase one, ticket prices increase an average of 4.5 percent.”
Keep in mind that this is only an average based on an average of waiting 12 days before booking. It also depends on where you’re travelling, some markets such as New York, Chicago, L.A. and Toronto are more unstable than others. The best person to tell you what the trends for the location you plan on visiting is your local travel agent. Give one of our agents at one of our four locations a call today and they would be glad to help you. Contact us now!
