Frequently asked questions

Is it cheaper to buy a plane ticket from JFK Airport to SDU last minute?
Booking your journey from JFK to SDU last minute could help you save if you stumble on a good deal. However, airfares usually don't drop in price as the departure date nears. If you hold off, flights could also be booked out or the best seats gone (because no one wants the middle seat). If you'd rather not take any chances, book well ahead of your departure date. Note that some of the biggest deals can be found up to a year in advance. If your preferred airline hasn't released tickets yet, check back regularly as deals are updated on Expedia all the time.
