Thanksgiving is a month away. Christmas is over ten weeks away. So, why bother looking at tickets to go home now?
Thanksgiving is the busiest travel period of the year. Ticket prices rise exponentially by the day during this time, so booking early is better.
First, decide the best method of travel. Are you close enough to go home by bus? Train? Do you have to take a flight, or will your parents pick you? All of these are important factors in planning your travel.
If you’re close to two different stations, look which one is cheaper and has the best times. Check sites like Jet Blue to see if they’re running flight sales (but be careful of blackout dates!). If you book now, holiday travel home can be relatively inexpensive and hassle free.
So, find out your finals schedule and call home. You’ll be back in town in no time!
