ACCORDING to global travel statistics studied by momondo.co.uk, Brits can save money by booking flights at least 53 days in advance of their departure.
By analyzing 12.6 billion airfares worldwide, the site found that by booking travel early – just under two months in advance of departure – consumers could save an average of 26% on flight costs. Conversely, the most expensive tickets are to be found when travellers chose to book their trip on the day of departure.
Prices can also vary hugely depending on the day of the week, with the cheapest departure fares typically found on Tuesdays and the most expensive on Saturdays. The average flight cost difference between these days of the week was 11.5%.
The time of the day is also important to consider when booking. momondo's statistics suggest that it’s normally cheaper to fly between the hours of 6pm and 12am.
Travellers can explore the six factors that affect fares with momondo's unique free money-saving tool Flight Insight, which is available on more than 10,000 routes worldwide.
