Effective strategies for affordable tickets
- Use flexible-date search tools: Explore broad date ranges on Google Flights or other search engines to spot lower prices.
- Include alternate airports: Add MEM and SHV in your search — sometimes savings outweigh the extra ground travel.
- Set fare alerts: Platforms like Skyscanner or Kayak often catch short-term offers.
- Compare total travel cost: Always add the cost/time of ground travel (car rental, fuel, parking) when flying to a nearby airport instead of LIT.
Booking & timing recommendations
- Check mid-week departures (Tuesday–Thursday) for better value.
- Enable price alerts for all airports in your search.
- Verify baggage and seat fees before booking — cheaper fare doesn’t always mean cheaper journey.
- Once you find a good fare, confirm it on the airline’s official site before purchase.
Avoid hidden costs
Consider ground transport time & expenses. A lower ticket price may be offset by rental car, fuel, or parking — factor those in when deciding.
Wishing you safe skies — Bon voyage!
