Frequently Asked Questions
Is booking too early bad?
Sometimes—airlines don't always release best fares very far out. 3-4 months early can be pricier than 6-8 weeks.
What about peak season travel?
For Diwali, Christmas, or summer holidays, book 3-4 months ahead as prices rise quickly.
Should I book one-way or round-trip?
Round-trip is usually cheaper for international. One-way can work for domestic budget airlines.
