Skyscanner has also shared some hacks for fans looking to score great deals.
“Airline prices are largely determined by algorithms, and if you can get online and book quickly you could get a bargain. However, any sudden surge in interest on one flight, or specific route can mean a change in prices in the hours/days that follow. If you’re unable to book quickly, setting up price alerts will ensure you’re the first to know as prices drop with any additional discounts or added supply. Not only that but we have also seen airlines increase capacity last minute as teams get through stages in previous tournaments so you could still get lucky,” said Skyscanner Travel Expert, Jarrod Kris.
Other hacks include:
-
Multi-City Made Easy: with host cities spread across the USA, Canada and Mexico, Skyscanner’s multi-city tool makes planning simple to combine multiple destinations in one trip and even save cash by mixing up your route.
-
Go Wide: flights around big match days will cost more. Use month view to spot cheaper options by flying a few days earlier or staying longer. Flexibility = savings.
-
Think Outside the Box: search nearby airports for better deals. Driving a little further for departure or landing at an alternative airport could mean cheaper fares and a more direct route.
-
Mix It Up: return tickets aren’t the only way. Flying out with one airline and back with another can cut costs. Skyscanner makes it easy to compare.
