Frequently asked questions

Is it cheaper to buy a plane ticket from JFK to GCJ last minute?
Being a spontaneous soul is a fabulous way to travel, but it's not always the smartest method to grab a cheap fare. It's better to book your John F. Kennedy Intl. Airport (JFK) to GCJ trip in advance instead of leaving it 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. You can unleash your spontaneous side when you reach your destination!
