Last minute trips

Aaron Cowen

I know most of your alerts are for trips months out, but often I find I need the option for last minute trips and would love to receive deals that are available within the next few weeks or so

Glad to help, Aaron! One additional note for checking the Flight Deals tabs - if you're looking at July for example, some deals may already be for next July so you'll just want to pay close attention to that!

Hi Aaron. Thanks so much for the feedback. I'll share this with our flight deal team.

You're correct that the majority of our deals are currently a few months out. If you aren't already, I'd suggest keeping your eye out for any of our Nerd Alerts. Those are often last minute deals or deals fully outside of the U.S. Additionally, when you log into our site, you can search by Month on the Flight Deals tab to pull up any deals that might be close to departure.

Tracey Burtch Thanks, Tracey! Yes, I review all Nerd alerts but few are for last minute deals - most seem to be fully outside of the US. Great suggestion though, I will check the tab you mentioned as most of my trips end up being last minute.
