1. Testing results with rounded prices in euros .

As in previous article mentioned I did test the websites with different parameters like buying international flight 81 day before flight. Secondly I tested belief that flying on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Saturdays the price will be much cheaper than flying on Fridays and Sundays.

So in picture 1. you can see that there is no cheaper days to fly out so it is pretty false believe. The days sometimes apply to domestic flights, but again most of the time that is not giving good result.

So following only the rule of flying on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Saturdays cannot give you cheapest flight. As mentioned in previous article it is good to know that most of the time you will get the cheapest ticket if you are flexible that means you don’t have specific day, time and so on to fly out. So very handy than is to use the sites where it is possible to see the days when it’s cheaper to fly the sites with calendars or similar options where you can see more than one day.

3. One way. Click on image to enlarge.

Don’t forget that when the city you are flying in have more than one airport and you are looking for cheapest travel option it’s important to know from or to which airport is cheaper to fly. In this example it could be that you are buying two one way tickets or multi city ticket and that way have less travel expenses. You can see example in picture 2. But then there is a case which you need to take in mind.

4. Round trip. Click on image to enlarge.

In some cases it’s cheaper when you book round trip than one way tickets even if you are flying to or from different airports as you can see it in example pictures 3., 4. So checking that can save you money. But it’s important not to forget when finding a much cheaper option you should count the end cost like transportation to and from airport and then ask yourself is it still cheap.
