Frequently asked questions

Is it cheaper to buy a plane ticket from SJO to ARI last minute?

However, fares usually don't get cheaper closer to the departure date. If you wait, flights could also be booked out or the best seats taken (because who wants the middle seat?). If you don't want to risk it, book well in advance of when you want to leave. Remember that some of the most awesome deals can be found up to a year in advance. If your preferred airline hasn't released tickets yet, check back regularly as offers are updated on Expedia all the time.
