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
am or 1 pm and on their return of willing
to arrive before 8pm and not 11pm.
Some want to return on weekends to be
back on their Monday-work schedule;
however, weekends would be densely
accommodated by families who tend
return from their vacation trip.
