Business  Travelers  have  to  make  impulsive  trip  sometimes  and
              will  be  able  to  pay  more  for  a  ticket  in  order  to  make  it  to  their
              schedule.  If  dates  are  closer  to  the  departure,  there  will  be  only

              seats   in   the   higher   or   more   expensive   cabin/booking   classes.
              However,   value   of   spending   is   not   taken   into   consideration   for
              the   travelers   en-routed   for   business   purpose.   These   passengers

              value   time   over   the   money,   as   their   prevailing   schedule   or
              meeting cannot be postponed or modified and they need to be  in a desired location on-time.


           Are there cheaper days to fly and book.?

             Yes, indeed. Even during the same week, Prices can vary widely.




























           Generally,   leaving   on   a   Friday,   Saturday   and   Sunday   will   be   expensive   than   compared   to

           Tuesday,   Wednesday     and   Thursday.   However,   the   lower   class   bucket   availability   matters
           irrespective  of  travelling  dates/day.  It  simply  means,  when  you  don’t  have  a  cheaper  class  on
           none  of  days  in  a  week,  it  means  that  week  is  already  filled  with  the  lower  class/fare.  Some

           of  the  cheaper  booking  classes  will  have  a  14  -  days  advance  purchase  restriction,  meaning
           that you can only buy those tickets 14 days or more before you depart.

                                                                                    Getting  a  cheaper  ticket  is  possible,
                                                                        if you are more likely okay with flexibility

                                                                        of   departure    or   arrival   dates/times.

                                                                        Since  most  people  prefer  to  leave  after
                                                                        5pm   finishing   their   work   instead   of   10

                                                                        to   arrive   before   8pm   and   not   11pm.
                                                                        Some  want  to  return  on  weekends  to  be
