"We look at a weighted average price, so departures in the next two to three months will be weighted most heavily, [and] most travelers getting low prices in August will be traveling in September and October," said Berg, explaining how Hopper determines the best times to buy and fly.Travelers departing most significant U.S. air hubs should find good deals this month, according to Hopper.
"Many major airports are offering lower fares this fall compared to 2019 to major destinations," said Berg."More than 200 to 300 destinations are priced lower this year from Chicago, Washington, D.C., Houston and Atlanta." From New York, Hopper is seeing what Berg called great domestic deals."We're seeing airfare to … top destinations as much as 27% lower than 2019 prices." Sample airfares from New York area airports include:International flights from major U.S. hubs that are good value include:Washington, D.C., to Copenhagen, Denmark, for $518OK, airfares are more affordable.
Berg said flight disruptions will remain a problem, despite temporarily improving last month. Delay rates, for example, had improved in July but then jumped back up to 25% from 18%. Thus, many of the firm's customers are taking"proactive measures to safeguard against potential disruptions," she said, including the purchase of trip insurance products. In fact, 1 in 5 Hopper clients now opt for such protections when booking.
