How do last minute flights work?

Airlines often offer last-minute flights for seats that aren't filled until close to departure. These tickets are sold at discounted prices compared to regular fares in order to maximise the use of their aircraft. Airlines such as Saudi, Vistara, Qatar Airways, Nile Air and others use this strategy to give passengers the chance to enjoy lower fares just before departure.

How do I book a last minute flight?

If you're looking to book last-minute flights to Oman or Egypt without the hassle of going to the airport to check availability, you can explore specialist online flight portals such as BudgetAir.ae. These sites offer the ease of browsing last-minute flight options from the comfort of your own home. At BudgetAir.ae you'll find a range of top destinations based on what other customers have booked within the last 30 days. This allows you to quickly assess available flights and secure your travel plans with confidence.

How and where can I find the cheapest last minute flights?

Travelling last minute can sometimes be cheaper, especially when airlines are trying to fill remaining seats close to departure. The cheapest times for last-minute flights can vary, but there are some strategies for finding good deals. Here are some tips for finding cheap flights to Amman or Tunis, along with exclusive tips from BudgetAir.ae:

• Search on Fridays and Saturdays: Flights departing on Tuesdays and Thursdays are often cheaper, so try to book flights departing on these days.

• Flexible dates: If you're looking for last-minute flights, it's often cheaper to look at surrounding dates. Use the '+/- 3 days' tab to find the cheapest departure dates.

• Consider alternative airports: Consider flying to or from different airports. BudgetAir.ae offers an "Alternative Airports" tab in the search results, which can provide more options and potentially cheaper fares, especially for last minute bookings.

• Flight transfers: Being open to flights with transfers can sometimes lead to cheaper fares. Use the 'number of stops' filter to see tickets with or without transfers.

Can I also book a hotel last minute?

Absolutely! When you book your last minute flight with BudgetAir.ae, you also have the option of booking a hotel or rental car with your flight. Simply click on "Flight + Hotel / Car" in the search box to compare airfares and explore accommodation options.

Please note that the availability of accommodation is sometimes limited compared to airfares. This means that there may not be rooms available at the hotel you originally requested. However, it's worth noting that last-minute cancellations can sometimes free up rooms and make them available again. So even if your preferred hotel appears to be fully booked, there's still a chance of securing accommodation through last-minute changes.
