THE MAGIC QUESTION: The right time to buy flights to the UK
Since the Brexit, the pound has been in free-fall and could soon reach an all-time low against the dollar. I want to purchase tickets to the UK from the west coast in March, specifically from Phoenix. Right now, flights seem to be [B]very[/B] low, around $750 round trip/person in economy on a direct flight with BA. My question is simple: who has the magic ball to see how low prices will go, and when will be the perfect time to buy?
No one has a magic ball unfortunately and if they do they aren’t sharing. You’ll have to guess yourself :).
If you find a price point that’s reasonable for you, book it. If the price drops again in 24 hours, you can cancel and rebook.
You can wait – it could be likely that fares drop further but theres no guarantees.
Stay tuned, will have a post sharing my thoughts on this on the blog this afternoon.
