1) When should I book for the best prices? BEFORE you go, here are your NEED to knows.
– Late bookings for package holidays can lead to significant savings, as prices often drop within eight weeks of travel, though options will be more limited.
– For flights, booking early (11 to 12 months in advance) often offers discounts, but prices might still drop later.
– Airport Parking is better value the earlier you book it, so it’s worth sorting it as soon as your travel arrangements are confirmed.
So you just need to weigh up the risks of waiting for potential lower prices against the certainty of booking early to get exactly what you would like.
