How can you get a great rate on tickets from Istanbul to Athens?
Hotwire has been doing this for years, so we know a few ways to snag the best rate on your flight to Athens. You'll make spending less look so very good with a few simple steps.
Which days of the week are cheapest to fly?
With the right attitude and flexibility, you can fly for less. Below are the cheapest days to fly:
- Tuesday and Wednesday—You know how most stores are not crowded midweek? Same thing here. So, get on while the getting is good.
- Thursday and Saturday—Get a head start on that Friday crowd. This also works on your return flight. Shorten your holiday by a day and increase your savings.
- Monday through Thursday—If you're flying internationally, deals are often available when departing these days.
What's the Saturday night stay rule?
If you stay through the weekend, generally that return ticket to IST can be cheaper since you'll be leaving earlier in the week. All those business travelers have less elastic schedules, so that means more savings for you. We are all for that!
Can you save while traveling during the off-peak season?
Off-peak and shoulder seasons are when most people aren't going to certain locations. So when it's cold, most people head off to warmer climates like the Caribbean, Mexico, Hawaii, etc., just like the birds (they had it figured out). But during the summer months, you'll find that Europe is where it's at. If you want lower airfare and avoid the crowds, travel when everyone else isn't.
Is that the lowest price?
Airlines change their rates often. If a price you like pops up, then get it! You're not the only one seeking a great bargain on a flight from Istanbul to Athens. You might lose your chance to get the carrier and the schedule you want.
