Here’s Why You Need To Book Your Winter Vacation Right Now
Planning a winter vacay? Good for you for ditching less than ideal, freezing weather. (For those of you who get warm weather all year round, we don’t want to hear it.) If you haven’t bought your plane ticket yets, you should think about doing it now. Here’s why you should jump on your winter vacay plans sooner than later.
The Culture Trip reports that Cheapflights.com, which is a travel site that offers low-cost airfare, analyzed data on winter vacations. The website’s findings suggest that over the next few months, prices on flights to popular U.S. destinations will greatly fluctuate, which won’t give you much room to find good deals later on.
The solution? Buy your tickets soon. The best time for specific destinations varies. If you’re looking to hit Vegas around Christmas, you should book right now. Flights to places like Atlanta, Georgia and Mexico City at the same time of year should be purchased by the end of July. Traveling to Orlando or Dallas? You have until mid-August to score a good price. Flights to New York City, Los Angeles and Miami should be purchased no later than mid-September.
If you don’t have the cash to book your airfare yet, don’t worry. Cheapflights also suggests that you can generally find decent deals to most of these destinations until September 25. You just may save more the sooner you book.
