Tips for Booking Airline Flights for Delegations and Large Groups

Booking airline flights for delegations and groups can be a challenging and often unfamiliar process. In this article. We will guide the suggested steps for organizing a group flight at a good price and with minimal frustration.

Pre-Booking Search for Delegation Flights

We recommend that group leaders start their search for flights using Google Flights. This search engine displays information from several different airlines. You may not be able to use this tool for booking group flights, but it can give you a good idea of the “baseline” price for one passenger and the different routes you can take to reach your destination. This step will be useful for preparing a budget for potential delegates and for finding airlines that serve the route you are interested in.

Utilizing Your Resources

We collaborate with various airlines and external travel agencies and can provide the best prices at competitive times. Just contact us, and we will assist you in finding suitable options.

Working Directly with an Airline

If your institution does not offer travel planning services, we recommend working directly with an airline provider. Once you find a potential flight through Google Flights, you can contact the airline directly for group rates (usually starting at 10 tickets or more). Most airlines have specific departments for this purpose, and you can find airline-specific information for each airline.

Tips for Booking Delegation Flights

Airplane ticket prices can vary significantly, and travelers should monitor prices as the travel date approaches. Here are some quick tips about booking windows and how seasonality affects ticket prices:

• Travelers should not postpone buying tickets until the last minute. The best booking windows for good deals are between 115 and 21 days in advance of the travel day.
• For more peace of mind, tickets can be purchased between 202 and 116 days in advance. However, prices might be higher.
• Buying a ticket between 20 and 14 days in advance can be risky, but you may still find a good deal. However, seat choices might be limited.
• Ticket prices are higher 13-7 days in advance, especially 6-0 days in advance. It is advisable to avoid waiting until the last minute to buy tickets. If you find a good deal before this time period, take it.
• Tuesdays are the cheapest days to fly, while Sundays are the most expensive. Midweek flights are best if you want to save money.
• The season of travel can also affect ticket prices. Consider these factors when shopping around for a good deal.

Contacting a Travel Agent

Travel agencies can offer group rates, bookings, and assistance in case of flight cancellations, delays, or missed flights, but they usually charge an additional per-person fee.

Many universities have specific travel agents on staff, so it is best to contact your business office to see what resources you may have available.

We currently do not have any travel agent recommendations. Travel agents can be found locally or through a quick Google search.
