Usually, ticket prices on the weekends are more expensive than those during the week, but many passengers do want to buy the cheapest tickets. Thus, Vietnam airlines has some suggestions for passengers to book cheap tickets.
First of all, there is a principle that the earlier you book, the cheaper ticket you get. A Japanese economist named Makoto Watanabe has recently published his research on flight ticket prices. He said that the most ideal time to purchase ticket is eight weeks before departure date. For example, when ordering tickets of Vietnamairline early few week, we must consider all possible cases so that we cannot take flight on time. Therefore, with passengers taking risks, airlines often offer them the very cheap prices tickets and as a consequence, the prices increase a lot in the close days.
According to the Wall Street Journal, passengers should buy plane tickets in midweek. As usual, most passengers purchase tickets at the travel agents and the agents usually open during the week, from Monday to Friday. Waiting until the Friday to offer attractive prices may be too late to attract buyers, therefore, the lower fares are often offered in the middle week.
Besides, President of a company specializing the airfare comParison also suggested passengers to purchase airline tickets online on Tuesday. As noted by the Wall Street Journal, on Tuesday, the average ticket prices of 10 different airlines are much cheaper than those on the other days. In addition, when analyzing the domestic airfares in the U.S., the experts found that Wednesday is also an ideal time to purchase airline tickets.
In fact, ticket prices are adjusted based on many factors with the complex mechanisms and also the passenger luck. It is should remember that everything is automatic. When computers find a flight selling ticket slowly, the cheaper seats are automatically added. In contrast, when the number of flight tickets are growing, computers will automatically reduce the cheap seats. In some cases, when we see incredibly cheap tickets, just a minute later, the cheap tickets are disappeared if we do not pay timely.
