Start planning now and save up to 30 to 40 percent on your travel for the upcoming holiday season

‘Tis the season to start thinking about where to spend the holidays. Expedia.co.th flight data released today shows the cheapest time to book flights for Christmas and New Year travel is 0 – 20 days out. Travellers who booked during these windows in 2017 saved an average of 30 – 40 percent on holiday fares, making the coming week a fantastic time to lock in travel plans for the festivities ahead.
 
“The busiest travel season of the year is right around the corner, and our data shows us that early planning helps travellers save – especially on airfare,” said Simon Fiquet, Managing Director of Global Series Markets, Brand Expedia. “We like to inform travellers of these sweet spots, so they can book confidently and maximise their savings ahead of the upcoming holidays.”

According to Expedia data, flights booked in early December can still yield savings of up to 20 percent, while the best time to lock in New Year travel plans is typically in November or early December.

  • Christmas: For 2018, the optimal window to book and save is now through to December 4 to save up to 20 percent[1].
  • New Year 2019: For New Year travel plans, the optimal window to book and save is before December 10 to save up to 15 percent[2].
  • Chinese New Year 2019: For those looking to plan ahead for Chinese New Year in 2019, booking your flights now can save you up to 40 percent. If you book your flight between 31 – 60 days, you can still save up to 30 percent[3].
 
The holidays are not the time to procrastinate, at least where airfare is concerned. Travellers who waited until the last minute, zero to ten days out, paid the most – 8 – 10 percent above the average ticket price.
