Frequently asked questions

What do i need to know before booking a flight.

There are various factors to consider when booking a flight including cost, fare classes, baggage policies, the complications of flying long haul, and complying with airport regulations. To make your booking journey smoother KAYAK has developed a comprehensive flight guide including insights on finding affordable flights, packing efficiently, and utilizing the best travel tools.

Which month of the year are flight prices lowest?

It’s well established that flights in the low season are generally cheaper than ticket prices during the high season. That means that knowing which month to find the lowest priced plane tickets will depend heavily on seasonality and your destination. While avoiding peak travel times can help you keep costs down, our data shows that the month with the lowest priced plane tickets for domestic flights based on all searches made on KAYAK in the last 12 months was January, while the most expensive was March. If you’re booking an international flight, then January is the cheapest month to fly and June the most expensive.

Can flying international flights with a layover save money on airfare?

For many long-haul international flights, flying non-stop is not possible and you will have to fly with a layover. Some routes will offer both and you could consider flying with a layover for a number of reasons. Firstly, breaking up what would otherwise be a long-haul flight, taking a rest and then completing the journey might make the flight more manageable. Secondly, prices can also be lower than non-stop flights, so while it might take longer for you to reach your destination, you could save money. We’ve looked at prices over the last 12 months for the 100 most popular international destinations for KAYAK users and on average, prices for non-stop flights were cheaper than flights with a layover.

How do I find the best flight deals on KAYAK?

A simple flight search at https://www.kayak.com/flights scans for prices on hundreds of travel sites in seconds. We gather flight deals from across the web and put them in one place. Then on the search results page you can use various filters to compare options for the same flight and easily choose the best flight deal from all of the deals coming straight from the travel sites to your screen, with no extra fee from KAYAK.

Does KAYAK query more flight providers than competitors?

Yes, KAYAK has access to more data and information than online travel agencies and consistently outperforms the competition in accuracy, globally.

What is KAYAK's "flexible dates" feature and why should I care?

Sometimes travel dates aren't set in stone. If your preferred travel dates have some wiggle room, flexible dates will show you flights up to 3 days before/after your preferred dates. That way, you can see if leaving a day or two earlier will find you a better deal. You can also select the flexible "weekend" or "month" search options to widen your search range and find the cheapest price that works for you.

What is the cheapest day of the week to book a flight?

The best day to book your flight depends on a number of factors, but there are general trends that you can follow to increase your chances of cheaper plane tickets. Based on an analysis of KAYAK data for all flights departing from inside United States over the last 12 months, the cheapest day to fly for domestic flights is Tuesday. For international flights, Thursday had the cheapest tickets on average.

When is the best time to buy plane tickets - Last minute or in advance?

Last minute flight deals are definitely up for grabs but when exactly to purchase your plane tickets will depend on where you’re traveling to and from. Based on all data for flight searches made on KAYAK over the last 12 months, prices for domestic flights remained below the average price up to 1 weeks before departure. For international flights, deals could still be had up to 1 weeks prior to the departure date, with prices remaining below average. If you’re flexible, KAYAK brings you both advance and last minute one-way and round-trip flight deals.

How does KAYAK find such low flight prices?

KAYAK processes over 2 billion flight queries annually and displays results from hundreds of airlines and third party sites, allowing it to find a variety of flight prices and options. It also displays results from 2M+ properties along with rental cars, vacation packages, activities and millions of verified reviews so users can see as many available travel options as possible.

How can Hacker Fares save me money?

Hacker Fares allow you to combine one-way tickets on different airlines when it can save you money over a traditional round-trip ticket.

How does KAYAK's flight Price Forecast tool help me choose the right time to buy?

KAYAK's flight Price Forecast tool uses historical data to determine whether the price for a given destination and date is likely to change within 7 days, so travelers know whether to wait or book now.

The Only Travel Accessory You Really Need on Your Next Airplane Flight

Stop using your airline's crappy headphones to watch in-flight entertainment.

The AirFly Pro is $11 off during Amazon's first-ever Big Spring Sale.

Even the worst Bluetooth headphones you own are probably higher quality than the absolutely terrible wired headphones you get on an international flight.

I don't usually have a problem with this, seeing as I always take my AirPods Pro so that I can listen to music from my phone or watch something that I've downloaded on my tablet, but sometimes I really want to take advantage of the in-flight entertainment.

You can always find recently released blockbuster films on in-flight entertainment, or popular TV shows that are only available on a certain streaming service. Most of the time though, I want to use in-flight entertainment because my devices are dead, because I just didn't plan very well.

And then I'm forced to use the worst headphones you've ever seen. In an environment that's already difficult for listening in general. I'm dealing with loud engine sounds and crying babies, and the in-flight headphones are always tinny and allow all the outside sounds to bleed in so that you can barely hear anything.

Stop watching in-flight entertainment with those awful airline headphones.

That's where the AirFly Pro comes in.

The AirFly Pro from Twelve South , currently on sale for $44 for Amazon's Big Spring Sale , is a very minimally designed dongle that you can connect into the 3.5mm headphone jack on your flight in order to listen to in-flight entertainment on your personal Bluetooth headphones. 

The AirFly Pro is $11 off for Amazon's Big Spring Sale.

All you have to do is pair the AirFly Pro with your headphones, like AirPods Pro or Bose QuietComfort, plug the AirFly Pro in and you're all set. You don't even need to use your phone to connect the two devices.

If you're worried about battery life, the AirFly Pro can fully charge in three hours and last for more than 25 hours.

You can also pair two separate headphones to a single AirFly Pro, in case you're with someone else on a flight and want to watch the same movie or show. If you're flying on an international flight that has that weird dual-plug headphone jack, Twelve South also sells the AirFly Pro Deluxe , which comes with an adapter and suede travel pouch for $65.

And if that's not enough, the AirFly Pro also doubles as an audio transmitter, so you can turn any speaker with a headphone jack, like your old car stereo, into a Bluetooth speaker.

Besides my Anker MagSafe battery pack , the AirFly Pro really has become my most treasured travel accessory when I fly.

11 Things You Should Never do When Booking a Flight

Posted: February 20, 2024 | Last updated: February 20, 2024

Flight Fails

While we tend to associate traveling and going on vacation with hefty expenses, it doesn't always have to be that way. With a combination of thoughtful planning and a few clever tricks up your sleeve, you can enjoy a memorable trip without draining your wallet. 

Since the most expensive part of a trip is usually securing plane tickets, figuring out how to work around this financial hurdle is conquering half the battle. From forgetting to set price alerts to booking too early, here are 11 mistakes to avoid while buying plane tickets.

Not Having Flexible Travel Dates

While this strategy won't work for those who have tight travel plans or can only get specific days off, being flexible with your travel dates can help you score cheaper plane tickets. Sometimes changing your departure or return dates by a day or two can result in surprising savings. Online platforms such as Google Flights , Kayak , and SkyScanner provide convenient tools that allow you to explore different dates, destinations, and prices.

Buying Tickets on the Wrong Days

Buying plane tickets on weekends when demand is higher will likely cost you slightly more compared to booking during the week. You may have heard from frequent travelers that Tuesday is the best day to buy plane tickets. According to a study conducted by Google , tickets were indeed found to be 1.9% cheaper when booked on Tuesday, Wednesday, or Thursday, compared to the weekend. More significantly, the study found that flying during the week was approximately 12% cheaper than weekend flights. 

Avoiding Red-Eyes

Red-eye flights — which are scheduled to depart late in the night and arrive early in the morning — are typically more affordable compared to regular flights due to their less desirable travel times. While waking up in the middle of the night to catch a flight can be exhausting, it does come with a few perks on top of helping you save money, like fewer crowds while going through TSA. 

Not Comparing Prices at Nearby Airports

Another good way to score cheaper plane tickets is to broaden your search to include nearby airports — especially if your departure or destination city is located close to airports that serve as connecting hubs. Chances are higher that you'll be able to snag cheaper tickets at a major airport compared to a smaller one. Just be sure to factor in transportation and accommodation costs to determine whether the savings are worth the added travel time.

Always Buying the Cheapest Fare

While it may be tempting to click on the most basic economy fare, it may not always be the cheapest choice. Budget airlines typically offer bare-bone amenities that do not include add-ons like seat assignments, checked bags, and even carry-on luggage. When you factor in these added expenses, they could end up costing more than the main cabin fare from a legacy airline. To avoid falling prey to this, familiarize yourself with the carrier's rules and carefully read the fine print before deciding to buy. 

Not Taking Advantage of Credit Card Rewards

If you travel often for work, you're likely already familiar with credit card programs that allow you to accumulate points and miles through your travels.  Leading travel credit cards, such as Chase Sapphire Preferred and Capital One Venture, allow you to earn generous airline points and miles with everyday purchases. Check with your credit card provider to see how you can maximize rewards to save on various travel expenses, including plane tickets, hotels, car rentals, and more.

Not Setting Up Price Alerts

If your travel plans are flexible, setting price alerts through sites such as Hopper, Kayak, and Google Flights can help you find more affordable plane tickets. When you set an alert, you'll be notified via text or email when a cheap deal rolls around. Setting price alerts can also be helpful for booking last-minute tickets, as airlines will sometimes slash prices to try and fill as many seats as possible on upcoming flights.

Booking Too Early

If you've been told to "buy your tickets as early as possible," I hate to break it to ya, but that belief is outdated. When you book too early, airlines may not have released their most discounted fares yet, leaving you to pay more than necessary. "Booking more than six months ahead can cost you since airlines set their initial prices conservatively," says Patrick Surry , chief data scientist at Hopper. The sweet spot to buy is generally 76 days before your trip, a study by CheapAir.com found .

Not Booking Legs Separately

If you have a more complex itinerary that requires multiple layovers, booking each leg separately can offer larger savings than if you were to buy the first option that airlines generate. With this strategy, you might hop on a flight on one airline to a larger airport, and then fly out on a different airline to your final destination. Just be sure to allow ample time in between flights in case of delays or other unforeseen circumstances.

Overlooking One-Way Tickets

While opting for a round-trip ticket is generally more affordable and easier to deal with, there are instances where booking separate one-way flights can unveil unexpected savings — especially if you're open to flying with different airlines. This strategy tends to be most effective when you're flexible with your choice of airlines for the arrival and departure legs of your travels. 

Not Calling In

Sometimes calling an airline directly to inquire about cheap last-minute deals or same-day flights can result in surprising savings. Some travel agencies also offer bundle vacation deals that include airfare and living accommodations that could fit your travel plans and budget. If an airline is dealing with last-minute cancellations, you may even be able to snag tickets at a very good price, so don't be shy about asking; you have nothing to lose by giving it a try.

Boom’s first test flight could signal the return of supersonic air travel

After years of delays, the colorado-based startup’s xb-1 demonstrator takes flight for the first time..

Aviation startup Boom Supersonic took a major step today toward its goal of returning commercial supersonic aviation to the skies, after the company’s prototype aircraft, the XB-1 , left the ground for the first time this week. The short, subsonic flight over the Mojave Desert came years later than expected, but it shows that Boom is at least still making progress.

The XB-1 took off Thursday at 7:28AM PT, reached a maximum altitude of 7,120 feet, and a top speed of 246 knots (283 mph). It landed 12 minutes later at 7:40AM.

Boom’s overall mission is to launch Overture, the first supersonic commercial aircraft since the Concorde ended operations 20 years ago . The company has secured contracts with major airlines like American and United , as well as manufacturing and development partnerships with Florida Turbine Technologies and GE Additive.

However, some of the most significant news lately has been the loss of partnerships, specifically with Rolls-Royce. The British manufacturer of jet engines parted ways with Boom in 2022, leaving the startup to develop its own engines.

Boom’s overall mission is to launch Overture, the first supersonic commercial aircraft since the Concorde ended operations 20 years ago

Notably, those engines are not used in the XB-1. Boom’s demonstrator aircraft, originally scheduled to fly in 2017, relies on a trio of 1950s-era J85 turbojet engines, the sorts used to power vintage aircraft like the Northrop T-38 trainer or F-5 fighter. 

Overture, Boom’s full-size supersonic commercial airliner, will use four of the company’s own engines, which are still under development and will be called Symphony. 

In an interview ahead of the flight,  Boom CEO and founder Blake Scholl says that each Symphony engine will deliver roughly three times the combined output of the XB-1’s three J85 engines. 

Engine type is just one of many design differences between the XB-1 and the eventual Overture craft, not the least of which is size. Scholl calls the XB-1 a “one-third scale prototype demonstrator for Overture.”

Scholl says the XB-1 is helpful for validation of simulator data and that its development has already borne fruit in the design of Overture — despite the two looking nothing alike.

“If your prototype looks exactly like your production airplane, it actually implies you’ve learned nothing. And we’ve learned a lot of things from XB-1 through the design, development, manufacturing that have caused us to improve Overture,” Scholl says. 

Boom’s demonstrator aircraft relies on a trio of 1950s-era J85 turbojet engines

The XB-1 also serves another significant purpose: fundraising. 

“The way ventures like this are always financed, you raise some capital, you prove some milestones. And flying this airplane here is a very important one of those milestones. That demonstrates the track record of execution, demonstrates that progress is being made, and enables access to capital and ever higher valuation,” Scholl says. “That’s how you look at SpaceX , any other kind of private aerospace venture, that’s how they all work.”

The current target is for the Overture airliner to take its first flight by 2030, but getting there will be expensive. Scholl says Boom has raised over $700 million so far, but that the overall development of Overture could cost upward of $8 billion.

Beyond finances, one of Boom’s most significant challenges might be right there in its name. 

Today’s regulations against sonic booms would mean subsonic Overture flights over most major land masses, throttling up only over ocean transits. The deployment of technologies developed on demonstrators like the NASA X-59 , which could turn sonic booms into sonic “thumps,” might ease those regulations in the future. 

Even so, flying at Mach 1.7 only over water would roughly halve the duration of flights between New York to London or Seattle to Tokyo.

The other big missing piece is sustainability. Flying two times faster than a current jetliner necessarily uses a fair bit more fuel in the process. That situation is compounded by the Overture seating just 64 passengers compared to the 853 souls you can sling over the Atlantic in an Airbus A380. 

Sustainable aviation fuel, or SAF , could prevent supersonic travel from becoming an even bigger burden on the environment than today’s aviation industry. SAF is created using renewable sources and is ideally infused with carbon pulled out of the atmosphere via direct air capture . This would, in theory, create a genuinely carbon-neutral aircraft fuel.

The eventual availability and distribution of SAF is an industry problem. Boom’s next steps are proving that its engineers’ designs can not only fly, but that they can break the sound barrier.

Of course, that is the goal for the XB-1, but we have a ways to go before that thing’s sonic booms shake the Mojave sands. CEO Scholl says that XB-1 will undergo a series of up to 15 test flights throughout the year, so-called “envelope expansion” missions, which will eventually push that envelope through the sound barrier.

Boom is also making progress on its Greensboro, NC “superfactory,” which Scholl says is ahead of schedule and will open this summer. But Overture, the airliner that will be assembled there, is years away. 

“We’re still targeting being in the air around the end of the decade on Overture. There’s a lot of work to do between now and then on that airplane, and our goal is to do it safely but also with a sense of urgency because we want this airplane for ourselves, our friends, our family, and our customers,” he says. 

So, the dream of supersonic commercial air travel is still moving toward reality, but those hoping to move quickly through the air will have to sit patiently for a good while longer.
