Best window
6–10 weeks before departure
Fare strategy
Compare direct vs 1-stop total cost
Travel prep
Check baggage + transit rules early
Best booking pattern: monitor from around 9 weeks out and lock when a fare matches your schedule, not only your target price.
Direct vs one-stop: direct can cost more, but it reduces disruption risk for same-day domestic transfers within India.
Airport timing: early-morning arrivals may improve onward connections, while very late arrivals can increase transfer friction and hotel costs.
Fare quality check: compare refund and date-change flexibility carefully if your travel dates may move.
