We are travelling to Tuscany in October (21-30) and we are having trouble finding cheap flights! any help?

Question

Our friends purchased tickets 2 weeks ago and 1.5 months ago, and, respectively, paid $700 and $600... we now can't find anything near there. Is there a trick or a secret to this? Thanks all~

Answer 1

Comparison travel engines:

http://www.sidestep.com

http://www.bookingbuddy.com

http://www.kayak.com

http://www.cheapflights.com

or small online agencies such as http://www.flycheapabroad.com

Where are you flying from?

You could always wait until the high season is over.

Also - if you are flexible - move your travel dates beginning of November - there is a significant drop in prices then.

Answer 2

Play around with the day of the week and time of day you can leave. Weekend flights are always lots more expensive.

Answer 3

go to www.clarkhoward.com check out the travel section, ask U R ??? there!! also do the farewatch from travelocity, they will send U email every day about the fare...

Answer 4

Wait till july august

Answer 5

check travel websites: travelocity, expedia, hotwire etc

Answer 6

Yahoo offers a search engine where it will search all possible websites and flights for the best possible deals. check it out. it's great.

Answer 7

I flew to Milan in March and I used a company called Destination Europe.  They have a website but it isn't for booking.  You need to call them direct at 1-800-FLY-EUROPE.  They were the cheapest I could find and were really great to work with.  Also, check out www.cheapflights.com.  That site offers a lot from airlines consolidating tickets.  If your dates are flexible, one of those may work for you.

Answer 8

wait until the end of august to purchase your tickets,.. sales for that time are not on yet.. it shouldnt be more then 500 with taxes included.
