Question 2

Accepted Answer

When it's time to book your flights, being prepared pays dividends. While you may be able to find a deal on an ATH to Dubai Intl. Airport (DXB) flight at the last minute, prices usually don't get cheaper as the date of departure nears.

For international travel it's three to four months.
