One day we will be traveling again, and in some cases… for half the price.
Right now most planes are grounded and the cost of a plane ticket is the cheapest most customers have ever seen. But when things start taking off again some prices might stay low.
According to USA Today, just ninety-seven thousand people went through the nation’s airports last Tuesday, half the number from two weeks ago. So, when airports start opening back up for full-time travel airlines are going to want to fill those seats.
In some cases that means you could find a steal of a deal. And you can make sure to capitalize on that now. First, check out some of the deals being offered. Find out the refund rate or what happens if your plans change and then book a trip for the end of summer or early fall. A time period that experts say might look more normal for most of us.
And take advantage of the free time. Update your passport and sign up for TSA Precheck. Might as well pack while you’re at it.
