Is it cheaper to buy a plane ticket from Baku Heydar Aliyev Intl. Airport to SAW last minute?
Booking your journey from Heydar Aliyev Intl. Airport (GYD) to Sabiha Gokcen Intl. Airport (SAW) at the last minute could save you a nice sum if you're lucky to find a real bargain. However, airfares don't typically get cheaper as the date of departure nears. If you hold off, flights could also be booked solid or the best seats gone (because no one wants the middle seat). If you'd rather not hedge your bets, book well in advance of when you want to leave. Remember that some of the most awesome deals can be found up to 12 months in advance. If your favorite airline hasn't released its fares yet, check back regularly as deals are updated on Expedia all the time.
