Why it’s cheaper than ever to book a flight right now — and these destinations have the lowest prices for summer
NY Post
Summer is usually the time of year when people are gearing up to book their flights, pack their bags and set their OOO email replies — leading to crazed airports and sky-high travel prices.
Contrary to what most people would think, according to Eric Rosen, the director of travel content at The Points Guy and a Kayak report, flight prices for summer travel are down 7% year-over-year.
“It’s quite significant for prices to drop that much,” he told The Post.
So, if you’ve been looking for a sign to dust off your suitcase and scrounge around for your passport this summer — let these money-saving travel hacks be it.
Rosen said international airfare is seeing an even greater price decrease, with flight tickets to long-haul hot spots like Sydney, Hong Kong and Berlin — down by 23%, 16% and 13%.
And if you’ve been daydreaming of a romantic European vacation, run, don’t walk to book it because airfare prices to destinations like Stockholm and Milan are currently down close to a whopping 20%, Rosen shared.

Over a period of three days, with limited VPN connection, an eyewitness currently in Tehran — who, for her safety, is concealing her identity — shared her account of life under a country in the midst of battle with The Post’s Natasha Pearlman.
