Book Early
This is the standard advise given out by every travel advisor. Airlines provide tickets at cheaper rates if booked early. This is to incentivise the users so that the airline can operate with confidence that its flight will be full sooner. If your travel date or date range is confirmed, book the tickets right away, as early as possible to get the best fares. Booking in last minute will cause unnecessary stress on the wallet as well as peace of mind, since normal economy tickets tend to become sold out as the flight date gets closer and the travellers are forced to book business class or premium tickets at a higher fare than that of the economy class.
Book flexible dates
There are certain portals such as makemytrip.com or SkyScanner where one can see a calendar of fares, in different combinations. Anyone with flexibility in dates should check for the cheapest outbound date and the cheapest inbound date. Even if your region doesn’t have any OTA that supports such a feature, one can manually check the rates for a 1 week to 10 day period to figure out the best date for travel.
Compare OTA vs Direct Airline website
Certain airlines offer cheapest prices on their own website compared to OTA (Online Travel Agent) websites. It is always advisable to check the prices of a flight ticket in multiple OTAs as well as directly on the airline website before booking. Several OTAs charge a convenience fee (ex: Tajawal, Cleartrip etc) while booking with specific airlines (Air India Express, Air Arabia etc). To avoid this convenience fee (sometimes called as “Processing Fee”), simply logon directly to the airline’s official website and book from there.
Avoid Credit card Forex Fee
When booking flight tickets online, avoid using international portals and use portals in your own country to book the flights. Since you will most likely be using a credit card to book the flight ticket, watch out for the foreign exchange fee on the card (aka forex fee), which usually starts at 3.5% on most cards. Ideally, look for tracel portals (OTAs – Online Travel Agents) of your own country and book through them.
Book Connecting Flights
If you have time, but want to save on money, opt for longer flight times but with cheaper fares. Most OTAs allow you to sort by cheapest flight and shortest flights. Often, connecting flights are cheaper. Some OTAs also make their own connecting flights without codesharing agreement between the airlines themselves.
Hide your Flight ticket Search History
OTAs as well as airline websites use cookies to track a returning user and intentionally show higher fares to maximize their profits. It is always recommended to do all your flight searches in “Incognito Mode” or “Private browsing mode” to hide your search history from such websites.

Passagier Frau Mag. Irina LEBANIDZE , reserv. TK/TDTMQC/IS/LNYELV/
ich habe für die Freundin unserer Familie im net bei Turk. Airl. buchen wollen , bin aber an my trip mit Sitz in Griechenland geraten. Ich werde 84 Jahre und bin am computer ein Anfänger. Ich habe Hin-und Rückflug plus Aufzahlungen für Terminänderung , Kofferaufgabe und Speisen gebucht. Es hat sehr schlecht funktioniert .
Frau Lebanidze konnte bei Ihrem Büro in Tiflis das ticket NICHT erhalten, erst später hat sie das ticket bekommen. Essen war im Preis inbegriffen , habe ich also doppelt bezahlt. Die Griechen sind also keine guten Partner . Ich werde im Februar bei Turk. im net buchen, ich bitte um hilfreiche Anleitung dazu, ich bin Privatpilot und Vielflieger.
Am Letzten des Juli hat Frau L. mit Ihrer Mutter per video telefoniert, einige Stunden ist Ihre Mutter bei der Operation (nicht billige OP , 3 stants) gestorben . Ich konnte nicht autofahren, grauer Star OP ). Frau L. ist am Steuer meines Autos überstürzt nach Wien Schwechat gefahren, um den Abendflug-Flug Wien Tiflis via Istanbul zu erreichen . Trotz meiner Aufzahlung für kostenlose Umbuchung musste ich am Schalter Flughafen Wien etwa € 195,– bezahlen. Das war in der Eile NICHT zu bklären !! Das kann am Abend passieren, aber versuchen wir es wieder gut zu machen, bitte . Danke, Bei meinen Reiseberichten kann ich das erwähnen .
Frau Lebanidze will im Februar 2020 wieder zu uns kommen . Ich bitte hier eine grosszügige Lösung anzubieten. Tiflis -Wien oder auch via München Salzburg oder Linz . Ich wohne in Oberösterreich und habe nach München die gleiche Entfernung. Frau L. kennt aber nur den Flughafen Wien und die Bahn zu uns: Attnang – Puchheim. mein Tel. 0699 122 01234 , oldtimer.marschhofer@gmail.com

My wife has no first name in her passport. This is the case with Muslims in Indonesia where she was born. When booking a flight from Amsterdam via Jeda to Kuala Lumpur and vice versa, I can only book for myself, but not for my wife due to lack of the first name, because that field has to be filled in. Some airlines have a solution for this. So my question is what can I fill in so that your airline agrees?
In her passport, her first name ( – – – ) has 3 dashes with 2 spaces, but no brackets.
