Frequently asked questions

Is it cheaper to buy a plane ticket from Gwangju Intl. Airport (KWJ) to John F. Kennedy Intl. Airport (JFK) last minute?
Being spontaneous is a wonderful way to travel the globe, but it isn't necessarily the wisest way to grab a bargain fare.

Based on flight pricing and demand studies in 2022, we have found that the best time to book domestic flights is between 28 – 35 days ahead of the departure date, and international flights three to four months in advance. Leave your spontaneous side for when you reach your destination!
