What is a Last Minute Flight?

A last minute flight ticket is a ticket that you book shortly before departure. This can be two weeks, a few days, or even a day before. The idea is that you can fly shortly after, whether to the Baltic Sea or to Dubai. For some destinations, last minute flight tickets can be cheaper than tickets booked well in advance. The challenge is to find them and make a quick decision. Often, super last minute deals are exactly what you’re looking for!

How do Last Minute Flights Work?

How does it work? Airlines often sell seats on flights that are not fully booked until shortly before departure as last minute flights. This means that the tickets are sold in the "last minute." The prices for last minute flights can be significantly lower than the regular fare. This way, airlines try to increase the occupancy of their planes, from Lufthansa to Ryanair, Easyjet, Eurowings, and more. For passengers, this creates the opportunity to benefit from cheaper fares just before the trip.

• Start with a search for your desired departure dates. For last minutes, it is often cheaper to look at surrounding dates. Use the +/- 3 days tab to find the cheapest departure dates.
• Depart from or land at a different airport. Use the Alternative Airports tab in the search results to see other options. This often increases the availability of flight tickets, especially when flying last minute.

Can I Also Book a Hotel Last Minute?

Of course, you can also book a hotel with your last minute flight ticket. Click on Flight + Hotel/Car in the search box to compare flight tickets and book a hotel (and/or a rental car). Please note: The availability of accommodations is often lower than that of flight tickets. Therefore, it’s possible that no rooms are available at the hotel you want. However, cancellations at the last minute may lead to rooms becoming available again.
