Frequently asked questions

Is it cheaper to buy a plane ticket from JFK Airport to EIL last minute?
Being the spontaneous type is a fantastic way to discover the world, but it's not always the best method to grab a bargain plane ticket. It's better to book your JFK Airport to EIL trip in advance rather than waiting until the last minute. 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. Save up that spontaneity for when you reach your destination!
