Planning to fly to Italy? Here are some tips to help you save on flight costs                                                       

Travel during the off-season or transitional seasons
The peak tourist season in Italy is during the summer months of July and August. In recent years, May and September have also become increasingly popular. Other busy periods include events and holidays such as Easter and Christmas. Therefore, if you have the option and are flexible with your travel dates, our recommendation is to visit Italy during the winter months or alternatively in March-April or October-November.

2. Flexibility
Sometimes, changing your flight to Italy by just one day can save you a lot of money, as can altering your flight time. Delaying your arrival or departure by a few hours in either direction can be significantly cheaper. Most flight booking systems allow you to see flight prices days before or after your planned date or, if there are two flights on the same day, which option is cheaper. It’s worth paying attention to.

3. Browse booking sites over the weekend
A crucial tip! On Sundays, there are fewer flight bookings, which means that demand in the booking systems decreases, allowing you to enjoy a cheaper flight price. Give it a try.

4. Fly mid-week
The most expensive flight days are Monday (business travelers returning to work) and Friday (tourists flying for the weekend). You’ll find cheaper flights on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday. The same goes for the return.

5. Fly via another country – connecting flights
If you’re really looking to save money, even at the expense of travel days, try flying to Italy through another major European city. You will find that the price differences are significant, and if the wait times for the connecting flight are not too long, you can enjoy considerable savings on your flight to Italy.
